Norway

Pay per distance

Norway uses AutoPASS: every toll point is automatic, with no booths and no stopping.

Overview

Norway uses AutoPASS: every toll point is automatic, with no booths and no stopping. Cameras read your plate at gantries on roads, bridges, tunnels and around city rings in Oslo, Bergen, Trondheim and Stavanger. You are billed afterwards. Most car ferries bill the same way. Prices are in kroner and vary by place, time of day and emissions.

About €0.08 per km on toll motorways.Estimate

There is no real per-km rate; tolls are charged per passage through gantries and city rings, so this is a rough average. City rings and ferries can dominate the cost.

How to buy

Where to get it

  • Nothing to do at the road: cameras bill you
  • Register your plate and card at epass24.com to pay foreign-car invoices online
  • An AutoPASS tag gives about 20 percent off and covers ferries

Step by step

  1. Just drive through the gantries; there is nowhere to stop and pay.
  2. If it is your own car, register it at epass24.com before or after the trip.
  3. Epass24 then sends invoices for every passage recorded against your plate.
  4. For a longer stay, order an AutoPASS tag for the discount and easy ferries.
  5. On a ferry, drive on; the plate or tag is read and billed the same way.

The traps to avoid

  • There is no roadside way to pay; without registration you are billed at the highest rate.
  • A rental car is billed via the company later, often with an admin fee that can beat the toll on a short trip.
  • City rings charge every crossing and more at rush hour, so driving in and out of Oslo or Bergen mounts up fast.
  • Electric cars now pay a reduced rate, not zero.

Charged separately

  • City toll rings (Oslo, Bergen, Trondheim, Stavanger)

    Charged every crossing, higher at rush hour and higher for petrol and diesel cars. A day in the city can be many crossings.

  • Car ferries (AutoPASS for ferje)

    Most ferries bill by plate or tag. A tag gives a discount; a car plus driver is roughly 100 to 300 NOK a crossing.

Local tips

  • Register at epass24.com if it is your own car, so charges do not get lost in the post at the top rate.
  • For more than a few days, an AutoPASS tag pays off: about 20 percent off tolls and cheaper ferries.
  • Budget for tolls to mount around Oslo and Bergen; a week can be well over 1,000 NOK in ring crossings.
  • Ferries are frequent on the west-coast route and add up alongside the tolls.
