A change in Hungarian law will require all motorhomes to use the e-matrica electronic toll system for the country's fee-based road network from January 1, 2026. The new rule eliminates previous payment methods for vehicles over 3.5 tons, such as using an onboard unit or purchasing a point-to-point ticket. The applicable toll category (D1 or D2) is determined by the vehicle's weight and the number of passenger seats listed in its registration document.
