Serbia Toll Roads Complete Guide
System: Distance-based open tolling with ENC electronic tag + manual cash/card lanes
Operator: JP Putevi Srbije (Public Enterprise Roads of Serbia)
Currency: Serbian Dinar (RSD); EUR accepted at some plazas
Coverage: All motorways (auto-put) and major expressways nationwide
Technology: ENC RFID transponders, ANPR cameras, staffed toll booths
Do I Need ENC for Serbia? 2026 Update
No, ENC (Electronic Non-Stop Collection) is optional in Serbia — cash and card payment remain available at all manned toll plazas. However, ENC users receive a 10% discount on all tolls and avoid queues at busy border-adjacent plazas.
Key Reality: Every motorway (auto-put) in Serbia is tolled. Transit drivers on Corridor X — the main pan-European route through Serbia connecting Croatia to North Macedonia and Bulgaria — will encounter at least four to six toll plazas on a full crossing. Budget roughly €15–25 for a passenger car on a full Corridor X transit.
2026 Update: JP Putevi Srbije increased toll rates by approximately 5–7% effective January 2026 in line with annual CPI adjustments. ENC transponders are now also accepted at all major border toll plazas. New segments of the Moravian Corridor (E763 southward) opened to tolling in late 2025.
Serbia Toll Costs: Current Rates
Serbia uses a distance-based toll system with rates varying by vehicle class (I through V) based on height and axle count. All rates below reflect the 2026 schedule.
Current Toll Rates by Vehicle Class (2026)
| Class | Vehicle Type | Rate (RSD/km) | Rate (EUR/km approx.) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Class I | Motorcycles | ~3.60 RSD/km | ~€0.031/km |
| Class II | Passenger cars, SUVs (height ≤1.3m) | ~7.20 RSD/km | ~€0.062/km |
| Class III | Cars with trailer, vans (height 1.3–2.0m) | ~10.80 RSD/km | ~€0.093/km |
| Class IV | Buses, trucks (2–3 axles, height >2.0m) | ~21.60 RSD/km | ~€0.186/km |
| Class V | Heavy trucks, semi-trailers (4+ axles) | ~28.80 RSD/km | ~€0.248/km |
EUR approximations based on ~116 RSD/EUR mid-2026 exchange rate. ENC users receive an additional 10% discount. Rates rounded; verify current figures at the JP Putevi Srbije website before travel.
Example Journey Costs — Passenger Car (Class II, 2026)
| Route | Distance (approx.) | Cash Toll (RSD) | ENC Toll (RSD) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Belgrade — Novi Sad (A1) | 90 km | ~650 RSD | ~585 RSD |
| Belgrade — Niš (A1/E75) | 236 km | ~1,700 RSD | ~1,530 RSD |
| Belgrade — Subotica (A1 northbound) | 155 km | ~1,120 RSD | ~1,008 RSD |
| Niš — Dimitrovgrad (A1, Bulgarian border) | 73 km | ~530 RSD | ~477 RSD |
| Full Corridor X transit (Croatian border — North Macedonian border) | ~430 km | ~3,100 RSD (~€27) | ~2,790 RSD (~€24) |

To calculate toll costs for cars, trucks, motorcycles, and all vehicle types across Serbian motorways, use the TollGuru Serbia toll calculator:
Serbia Motorway Network
Serbia's motorway network spans approximately 1,000 km of completed auto-put, with additional expressway segments under active construction. All tolled routes are operated by JP Putevi Srbije.
Corridor X (Pan-European):
- A1 (E75) — Belgrade to Niš and south to North Macedonian border: The busiest tolled route; full four-lane motorway with major plazas at Batajnica, Mladenovac, Pojate, and Doljevac
- A1 (E75) — Belgrade to Subotica (Hungarian border): Northern arm of Corridor X; serves high freight and tourist traffic
- A2 (E70) — Belgrade to Croatian border (Batrovci): Western arm connecting to Zagreb; heavy transit freight corridor
- A1 branch — Niš to Dimitrovgrad (Bulgarian border): Completes south-east Corridor X link
Corridor XI and Other Routes:
- A5 (E763) — Moravian Corridor: Connects Belgrade south-west toward Montenegro; new sections tolled from late 2025; full completion expected 2027
- A2 — Belgrade to Novi Sad and Subotica: Separate carriageway segments; toll collected at Novi Sad interchange and Subotica plaza
- Belgrade Ring Road (A1/A2 junction): Short tolled section around the capital; flat-rate toll applies
Recent Changes (2026)
Rate Adjustments:
- January 2026: Toll rates increased 5–7% across all vehicle classes in line with CPI
- ENC discount maintained at 10% for all classes
Infrastructure:
- Moravian Corridor (A5/E763): New toll plazas activated on southern sections opened late 2025
- Ruma–Šabac expressway: Tolling commenced on completed segments; connects to A2
- ENC now accepted at all international border toll plazas (full rollout completed 2025)
Payment Technology:
- Contactless card terminals upgraded at all major plazas during 2025
- JP Putevi Srbije mobile app updated with real-time plaza wait times
- Pilot of fully automated (unstaffed) lanes at Belgrade Ring tollgates launched Q1 2026
Planning Your Journey
Cost Considerations:
- Passenger car, Belgrade to Niš return: approximately 3,400 RSD (€29) cash
- Full Corridor X transit (passenger car): approximately €24–27 depending on direction and ENC use
- Heavy trucks (Class V) pay roughly 4x passenger car rates per kilometre
- Budget extra time at Batajnica and Stara Pazova plazas during summer peak (July–August)
Toll-Free Alternatives:
- Regional (R) roads parallel most motorway corridors but add 40–90 minutes per 100 km
- Belgrade city ring roads (non-motorway) are toll-free for urban travel
- No toll-free motorway equivalent exists; all auto-put sections are tolled
Foreign Vehicles:
- No vignette or special foreign vehicle permit required — pay per toll plaza like domestic users
- Euros accepted at border plazas; carry some RSD for interior plazas on longer journeys
- Rental cars from Croatia, Hungary, or Bulgaria can use the same ENC tag if the provider participates — confirm with your rental company
Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need a vignette for Serbia?
No. Serbia does not use a vignette system. All motorway tolls are collected at physical toll plazas on a distance-based, per-journey basis. There is no sticker or time-based pass to purchase before entry.
Can I pay Serbia tolls in euros?
Yes, at most plazas — especially those near border crossings. Change is returned in Serbian Dinars. Interior plazas (such as mid-route on the A1) may only accept RSD and cards, so carry both if travelling longer distances.
What happens if I do not pay a Serbia toll?
Toll evasion at manned booths is treated as a traffic violation; police patrol toll areas and can issue on-the-spot fines. For ENC accounts with insufficient balance, a grace notification is sent; repeated underpayment results in account suspension and pursuit of the outstanding balance plus penalties.
Do motorcycles pay the same tolls as cars?
No. Motorcycles are Class I and pay approximately half the per-kilometre rate of passenger cars (Class II). They use standard toll lanes; there are no dedicated motorcycle lanes at Serbian plazas.
Are tolls different for electric vehicles?
As of 2026, electric vehicles are classified by the same height/axle criteria as combustion vehicles and pay standard class rates. No EV-specific discount exists on Serbian motorways, unlike some EU neighbours.
Is there a weekend or night discount?
No time-of-day or day-of-week discounts apply on Serbian motorways. The only consistent discount is the 10% ENC reduction, available at all times.
