Which countries are covered? - Telepass-'Toll Box up to 3 m'

Below you will find information on which countries the “Toll box up to 3 m height” of Type Telepass (serial number on the narrow side of the toll box begins with '000490...' and/or the 'PREMIUM-Toll Box up to 3 m') covers.

If the serial number of your toll box begins with '03...' (Type Axxès), the following text does not apply. For information on the Axxès-'toll box up to 3 m,' please click here. 

The “toll box up to 3 m height” of Type Telepass is activated for the following countries at a flat rate.

• Italy (including Sicily and Ferry 'Villa San Giovanni - Messina' (Sicily), + parking)
• France (+ parking)
• Spain (+ parking)
• Portugal
• Croatia (routes operated by HAC)

Italy - Spain - Portugal:

Italy, Spain, and Portugal are covered with any vehicle, regardless of weight and height. At the toll station itself, the vehicle is measured and classified using sensors, and the correct tariff is charged automatically.

Merely in France and Croatia certain aspects must be taken into account regarding vehicle dimensions.

France:

According to the official rules of the toll operators, vehicles weighing 3.5 tons or more, or measuring 3 meters in height, require a toll box for heavy vehicles.

However, practice has shown that height is measured first and weight is only secondary.

For example, a motorhome with an actual weight of up to 4.5 tons, a height of up to 3.05 meters measured without superstructures, and no more than two axles is subject to the “toll box up to 3 m high” contrary to the official rules of the French toll operators. Vehicles with an actual weight of up to 4.5 tons, a height of up to 3.05 meters measured without superstructures, and no more than two axles cannot use the “toll box for vehicles over 3 m high” and the barriers would remain closed.

Superstructures such as satellite dishes, air conditioning, etc. are not included in the relevant height.

Croatia: All vehicles with an actual weight of up to 3.5 tons can use the toll box in Croatia.

Currently, the route network of the largest toll operator, Hrvatske autoceste d.o.o. (HAC), is covered. The route network in Istria operated by Bina-Istra d.o.o. will follow later.
