Rates and payments

The electronic toll rate depends on the road class, the maximum permissible weight of the vehicle or the total maximum permissible weight of the combination of vehicles (e.g. a vehicle with a trailer) and the exhaust emission class.

The vehicle classifier available on the website enables you to calculate the electronic toll rate using a simple vehicle parameter configurator.

How to provide payment collateral

Each vehicle registered in the e-TOLL system is linked to a specific billing account. You can have multiple vehicles linked to one billing account, and one set of billing accounts may include multiple billing accounts. If you have a set of postpaid accounts, you should provide collateral in one of the following forms:

• cash,
• bank or insurance guarantee,
• surety provided by a third party.  
  

You can make a cash deposit payment:

• In the form of a bank transfer to the bank account number indicated during registration in e-TOLL, dedicated to the payment of cash deposits,
  • in case of online registration, the account number will be available in the Online Customer Account (OCA),
  • in the case of registration at a Customer Service Facility (MOK), the account number will be provided by a MOK employee.
• Using a payment card (excluding fleet cards) and BLIK and PayByLink mobile payments.

Important

• Collateral in the form of a cash deposit is made for an indefinite period.
• The first bank/insurance guarantee or surety should be issued for a period of minimum 1 year.

A guarantee may be issued in Polish or another language. A guarantee in a foreign language must be accompanied by its sworn translation. 
You can submit a guarantee in two ways:

• in paper form – the original guarantee should be sent to the following address:

Ministerstwo Finansów – Krajowa Administracja Skarbowa
Wydział Obsługi Rozliczeń i Płatności
Departament Poboru Opłat Drogowych
ul. Świętokrzyska 12
00-916 Warszawa 

• in electronic form – the guarantee signed with a qualified signature by the guarantor should be sent (preferably by the guarantor) to: gwarancje@etoll.gov.pl

Important:

• Until the guarantee document is approved, the electronic toll can be prepaid. You should first, however, create a prepaid account and register your vehicles in it.

Guarantee templates are available in the Forms and document templates tab.

Payment collateral may be provided in the form of a surety granted by a third party whose capacity to repay liabilities in the calendar year in which the surety is provided has been assessed at the level:

• of at least BBB+ or Baa1 awarded by rating agencies specified in the regulations issued pursuant to Article 2c(3) of the Act of 8 May 1997 on sureties and guarantees granted by the State Treasury and certain legal persons (Journal of Laws of 2022, item 1613) or
• corresponding to at least the BBB+ or Baa1 level awarded by internationally renowned rating agencies. 

Termination of payment of the electronic toll by periodic payment with guarantee may take place when:

• the deadline indicated in the reminder for late payment expires,
• the amount of the electronic toll charges or interest charged reaches 99% of the amount of the guarantee lodged (note that any change in toll rates and any extension of the road network to include new toll sections may affect the amount of the guarantee),
• the user submits a request to terminate the electronic toll payment within 30 working days,
• the user fails to provide the original renewed guarantee document 30 days before the expiry date of the guarantee or surety.

A billing account for paying the electronic toll will automatically be created – a prepaid account with a balance of PLN 0 (remember to top it up before your journey). The number of billing accounts created for prepayment of the electronic toll will correspond to the number of billing accounts for which the payment of the toll by periodic payment with guarantee has been completed. In this case, you will be required to comply with and apply the rules for having a prepaid account.

Use the Collateral amount calculator and calculate the amount of required collateral.
