Toll roads Norway (Registration)

[Laurensvh]

Hello everybody!

In less then 4 weeks we start our trip to Norway, i've been doing some google work about the toll roads and the registration for this.. Also read some stories about people who didn't register their vehicle and never got a bill.
What i found about the toll registration is Euro Parking Collection Euro Parking Collection plc where you can get an account, fill in your identifications and stuff. Then they will know where to send the bill.

anyone with expirience in Travelling in Norway and the toll situation?

Thanks allready for the help!

Laurens.

No experience. But we're going in July/August. So will follow this thread
I know you can buy a autoPASS and a toll tag which will also give you a discount at some places.

But the issue here is what toll road operator should you choose?

Think you've already found it, but better to share than not.
Visitors' Payment - AutoPASS

Hopefully someone can help you (us) further

Hey,

Thanks for your reply!
Yes that's what I found. Don't need a tag for the windshield. It takes a picture of the license plate and you get the pictures and everything. And a few weeks later you get the bill I think.

It's the only I can find so I'll guess I just register the vehicle and plate and we will see then :).

I'll let you know when I get back how it went xD..

What is you route or plan?

Thx

We registered on our 2017 trip Euro Parking, all very easy and registered a credit card and got a bill about 2 months later and much cheaper than expected. Bottom line is if you are supposed pay tolls then you should pay them you also run a risk if you ever return of being caught.

Hey,

Yeah, if it's supposed to you should (when reread my post it sounded a little differend ) Just looking for the right way to do it :)

Thanks

What I understood was that the tag works in all Scandinavian countries and Austria. But maybe only the registration does this also?
I'm curious how your registration and trip went.

We're planning to go through Germany (just passing) to Denmark (stay 1 night), Sweden (1 day/night, but maybe many more) and than enter Norway. In Norway we've not planned a route yet. We'll see I think. Wherever the roads may take us.
Eventually we'll take the boat from Oslo to Frederikshaven Denmark again. Than straight home in Holland again.

Do you have a specific route? And how long are you going to stay?

This is about the OBE (toll tag). Useable in Denmark, Sweden and Norway.

Route as followed: Beerse(Belgium)-Hamburg(Germany)-Kiel(Germany)-Oslo(by Cruise/ferry)-Otta-Kristiansund-Molde-Geiranger-Sande-Flam-Odda-Bergen-Stavanger-Kristiansand-Hirthals(Denmark by Ferry)-Back home thru Denmark/Germany :). That's the route but it can change if we enjoy a place and decide to hang around longer or if we get lost (but not really lost) exploring the less used roads :).

Thats the plan min 21 days max 25 days.

Departure 25th May :).

(Could have said this in Dutch but i'll do it in English so everyone understands :) )

Hi,
there’s no need to do anything in advance. Just go there and whenever there’s a road or a bridge you have to pay for they scan your number plate and you will get a bill a few weeks later. This worked absolutely fine for me four years ago in Norway and this year in Sweden was the same.
The countless small ferries in Norway I payed by credit card, like nearly everything else in Scandinavia.

Have a good trip both of you, it’s so amazing up there.

Cheers

Thanks Arne! Good to know! [emoji1360]

Arne is absolutely correct, don't worry about the tolls roads ( highways ) you'll get a bill in the post weeks or even months after your trip.
But if you do decide to drive the smaller gravel toll roads, they are blocked with gates where you pay with a credit card. Prices vary on the smaller toll roads from 20kr to 180kr.

@Todd At those smaller gravel roads, can you pay with the toll tag there?

 

[Todd Jackson]

@Todd At those smaller gravel roads, can you pay with the toll tag there?

No, they are simple unmanned gates with a credit card machine.

Thanks

 

[Laurensvh]

That's very good to know! Thank you guys very much! One question tho, are there many private roads that u can not use? And are these roads easy to recognize? (Might be a dumb question XD haha ).

Thanks :)

 

[Mivida]

Good question [emoji1360]

 

[Todd Jackson]

The private roads are normally blocked with a boom which is locked. You do have public right of way on most roads though. A rule of thumb when venturing out of the norm, do not leave a travelled track.
