Travelling by car

Prague is easy to get to from all the directions. From the West, highway which connects Nurnberg and Munchen (A6) and crosses the border at Rozvadov via Plzen.

From the North we recommend use A17 from Dresden. From Dresden to Prague there is a new direct highway connection.

From Wien and Brno is highway connection also possible.

Vehicles with total weight under 3.5 tonnes – regardless of trailer weight have to use vignettes (motorbikes are free of charge). The details shown in the vehicle registration document are decisive in determining the total weight (m) of the motor vehicle.

Where to buy a vignette (stickers)?

Stickers are available at almost every petrol station or post office in the Czech Republic. When entering the Czech Republic on motorways D1 (from Poland near Bohumín), D2 (from Slovakia near Břeclav), D5 (from Germany near Rozvadov) and D8 (from Germany near Petrovice), the sticker can be bought on the first rest area after the border.

NOTE: It is highly recommended to buy a sticker with a credit card or in CZK directly at the petrol station cash desk! Other resellers at rest areas may charge you an additional amount of money for exchange rates, please beware of unfair rates.

Other information

A proof of payment of the fee is a 2-part sticker. Part one of the sticker is to be placed on the inside of the windscreen. Part two of the sticker is to be retained.

Fill in the registration number of your vehicle legibly in the places indicated on both parts of the sticker. Use pen, not pencil.

Where to put the sticker: The complete surface of part one of the sticker must be attached to the bottom right of the vehicles windscreen inside so that the driver's view is obstructed as little as possible and the sticker is clearly visible from the outside. Retain part two of the sticker for check purpose. During police checks, both parts of the sticker are required. Stickers not fully attached to the windscreen, or on which either the validity period or the vehicle's registration number is not filled in, are invalid.
