Italy Toll Box – FAQ
In our FAQ’s we answer the most important questions about the car toll to Italy. You have further questions? Then feel free to contact us!
For which vehicles are the toll boxes available?
The toll box is available for the following vehicles:
- For cars and vehicles up to 3 meters high
- For motorhomes and vehicles over 3 meters high
- For commercial trucks with over 3m height and over 3.5t weight
MOUNTING: Where must the toll box be mounted?
Please consult the vehicle manual, the vehicle manufacturer or your garage to find out if your vehicle has a metal coating on the windshield and where there is a cutout for this coating. Vehicles often have a dotted or colored area next to the rearview mirror on the windshield.
This dotted or colored area is usually free of coating and the toll box should be placed within this dotted or colored area.
The toll box does not need to have visual contact with the toll station, but is in “radio contact” with the toll station. This “radio contact” can be disturbed or completely prevented by a metallized coating or by heating wires, which is why correct mounting is important.
For motorhomes, we recommend mounting in the center about 15 cm above the dashboard on the windshield.
ACTIVATION: Do I have to activate the toll box before starting the journey?
No, the toll box is already active when you receive it. All you have to do is install the toll box in your vehicle according to the enclosed instructions and you can start driving immediately.

The contract is concluded for one year and the annual fee is always paid for 12 months in advance. If you want to keep the toll box, the contract is automatically extended for another year. You can find more information on the provider’s website.
