== Do I Need to Pay Tolls in Denmark? 2025 Update ==
+
<p style="font-size: 16px; color: #202122; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; line-height: 1.6; margin: 8px 0;">No, you don't need a BroBizz to drive in Denmark - but you'll save significantly on bridge crossings with one. Denmark's road network is completely free except for two major bridges: the Great Belt Bridge (Storebæltsbro) and Øresund Bridge (Øresundsbro).</p>

Denmark has '''no toll roads''' for passenger cars - all motorways and highways are free to use. However, tolls apply to specific major bridges connecting the Danish islands and to Sweden.

<p style="font-size: 16px; color: #202122; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; line-height: 1.6; margin: 8px 0;"><strong style="font-weight: bold;">Key Reality:</strong> Bridge tolls without electronic payment cost significantly more. Øresund Bridge costs 510 DKK cash vs 178 DKK with ØresundGO discount - savings that pay for the annual fee on the first round trip.</p>

Do I Need a BroBizz for Denmark? 2025 Update

2025 Update: New pricing structure from January 1, 2025 reduces cash prices on Storebælt Bridge by 45 DKK due to EU Eurovignette Directive limiting automatic payment discounts to maximum 13%.
