If your destination is Luxembourg or you are transiting this country, you need to know details about how to purchase a Luxembourg vignette.
If you choose to visit this country with your own car, we have good news for you: the Luxembourg vignette is free and you do not need it to drive on Luxembourg’s roads.
However, if you carry out a transport in Luxembourg or transit this country with a truck of at least 12 tons, you will need to purchase a Luxembourg vignette.
We will present everything you need to know about the Luxembourg vignette in this article.
Free Luxembourg car vignette
Similar to the system in the Netherlands, Luxembourg does not require the purchase of a Luxembourg vignette for small cars, and therefore, you can travel for free on the roads and highways of Luxembourg by car.
At the same time, there are no other Luxembourg road taxes.
This is considered a remarkable advantage that spares you the extra cost and hassle of purchasing vignettes online or physically.
Vignette Luxembourg trucks against cost
If you drive heavy vehicles of 12 tonnes or more, you are required to purchase a Luxembourg vignette if you drive on Luxembourg roads and motorways.
This tax imposed by Luxembourg is called a Eurovignette and can be purchased online.
Exceptions to Luxembourg vignette taxation are the means of transport for people under the 12-ton weight limit, namely coaches and buses.
In the continuation of the article, you will find out everything you need to know about how you can purchase a Luxembourg vignette.
How much does a Luxembourg truck vignette cost?

To complete the information on the site, you must carefully review the following data:
- the country in which the vehicle is registered;
- registration number, exactly as in the registration certificate, with all spaces included;
- the number of axles;
- vehicle pollution norm.
To choose the validity period of the vignette, you must keep in mind that you can choose between a minimum of one day and a maximum of one year.
One thing to look out for is receiving payment confirmation for the Luxembourg vignette to make sure the payment has been made and you won’t have any problems.
