Correction of license plate and country code

If an incorrect license plate was recorded during purchase, a correction may be requested under certain conditions. The license plate must exactly match the one in the vehicle registration certificate.

Common errors: Swapping 0 and O, swapping 1 and I, mistyping one or more characters, providing an old license plate, or the plate of a different vehicle.

For foreign license plates, selecting the correct country code is particularly important. If the license plate is correct but the country code is wrong, the system may not be able to link the entitlement to the correct vehicle. Correction can be requested through customer service.

Changing fee categories and other modifications

If you selected the wrong fee category during purchase, a category modification may be necessary. This is especially common with D1 and D2 categories (e.g., motorhomes, vans). If the new fee category is higher, you may need to pay the price difference.

Vehicle replacement and transfer of ownership

If the vehicle is sold during the year or the right of use terminates, transfer of the existing e-vignette to another vehicle may be requested in certain cases. The conditions depend on vehicle data, fee categories, and validity periods.
