In Austria, it is generally frowned upon to have more than 2 adhesive vignettes on your windshield. However, it is not illegal, and you will not face any penalties if you have more than 2 adhesive vignettes on your windshield.
It is important to ensure that the vignette is placed clearly visible on the inside of the windshield, such as in the top left corner or near the rearview mirror. It should not be placed in the tinted strip area or within the driver's line of sight.
If you want to avoid discussions and delays during your trip due to having more than 2 vignettes, it is best to remove the expired vignette before your journey using dishwashing liquid and warm water. Apply the mixture generously to the adhesive vignette. After a few minutes of soaking, the old vignette can be gently peeled off, and the new one can be applied.
To save yourself all the hassle and work, you can also simply purchase a digital vignette from us. This is linked to your license plate, is automatically recognized on-site, and does not need to be scraped off the windshield. You don’t have to worry if you need more than 2 vignettes during your trip or if you forgot to remove the previous one.
You can order the digital vignette directly from us. This also eliminates the 18-day waiting period. On our website, you can also purchase combination vignettes if you plan to travel through multiple countries.
