Easier and faster travel to Romania
2025. 01. 16. 13:01
As of January 1, alongside Bulgaria, Romania has become a full member of the Schengen Zone. This means that from the new year, regular border checks at the Hungarian-Romanian border have been abolished. As a result, traveling between the two countries has become easier and faster, as there will no longer be a need to spend long hours waiting in line at the border.
Additional tips for seamless travel
- While crossing the border will now be simpler, it’s still important to keep your personal identification documents with you at all times!
- Although travel plans will become more flexible, it’s still advisable to prepare for potential traffic jams or weather conditions.
- Always check road conditions before starting your journey and ensure your vehicle is properly equipped.
- Familiarize yourself in advance with any required road usage permits, and if possible, purchase them online.
Don’t forget your Hungarian highway vignette!
If you no longer need to wait at the border, why spend time at a gas station just to purchase a Hungarian highway vignette? Buying an e-vignette is not only faster but also much more convenient. Additionally, you won’t have to worry about errors like the gas station clerk mistyping your license plate number, as you can double-check all the necessary details yourself!
The official online sales platform, hungary-vignette.eu, allows you to purchase the required road usage permit within minutes. Payment can be made via bank transfer, credit card, Apple Pay, or Google Pay.
