Whenever we are about to arrive in a new country we need to always research driving information as every country has its own rules.

On a lot of the roads in Europe and especially in Eastern Europe, you need to buy a vignette or in some cases as we are over 3.5 tonnes in weight have a prepaid box fitted to the front of the windscreen.

So how do you purchase a vignette?
As you approach the border you can usually purchase a vignette at the garages either just before or just after you cross the border.
However, we have just come across a website that gives us all the country information and we can purchase the vignettes in advance. The website address is https://www.tolltickets.com/en/ It was very easy to set up an account and it also means all our vignettes are now in one place.
We are about to cross into Slovenia and we will need to purchase a Dars box, which is a prepaid box. This will be first time we have had to do this so I will update the blog once we have been through the process.
