The tax for using the national road network in Romania, also known as the “rovignette”, for freight trucks over 3.5 tons will increase, according to a draft bill published by the Transport Ministry, cited by local Ziarul Financiar.

The rovignette for freight vehicles between 3.5 and 7.5 tons will go up from EUR 4 to EUR 12 per day, from EUR 16 to EUR 30 per week, and from EUR 32 to EUR 60 for 30 days. The 12-month vignette will go up from EUR 320 to EUR 600.

For trucks between 7.5 tons and 12 tons, the tax will go up from EUR 7 to EUR 12 per day, from EUR 28 to EUR 33 per 7 days, and from EUR 56 to EUR 66 per 30 days. The 12-month tax will increase from EUR 560 to EUR 660.

The new tax levels will only apply to those who buy the vignettes after the bill goes into force.
