Do I Need a Eurovignette for Luxembourg? 2025 Update
No, you don't need a Eurovignette to drive on Luxembourg roads unless you're operating a heavy goods vehicle - passenger cars, motorcycles, and light vehicles under 12 tonnes use all Luxembourg motorways completely free of charge.
Key Reality: Only heavy goods vehicles (HGV) with gross vehicle weight of 12 tonnes or more require a Eurovignette to use Luxembourg's 165 km motorway network. Cars, vans, buses, and coaches drive toll-free.
