Toll operators in France charge tolls (péage) for the use of French toll freeways for all vehicles. Only in Alsace, Lorraine, Brittany and on the A75 is freeway use mostly free of charge and there is free travel without paying tolls. This also applies, as a rule, to freeways that run through or bypass conurbations. The amount of the toll or freeway fees depends on the distance traveled as well as the type and class of vehicle. In addition, the toll France is based on the costs incurred in the construction of the driven route.

When selecting the vehicle class, in practice there is a certain ambiguity in the measurement of the vehicle. To select the correct toll box liber-t or TIS-PL, see the explanations below under “Vehicle classes”.

Parking blocks
With the liber-t toll box, you can also pay parking fees automatically and easily in many parking garages. More information at: www.parkindigo.fr. If you have booked a parking block in advance, please wrap your toll box in aluminum foil to avoid double bookings.
City toll
Many cities in France have environmental zones. If air pollution is elevated, access restrictions are imposed in various regions. The environmental zones in France can be identified by the following marking: ZFE-m (Zone à Faibles Émissions mobilité).
Environmental zones that are permanent are called “Circulation différenciée/Differentiated traffic” and apply temporarily after certain concentrations of air pollutants are exceeded.
Larger cities in France are planning to introduce ZFE-m environmental zones. Before traveling to France, travelers should inform themselves about the location of affected regions.
Note on environmental zones
Domestic and foreign vehicles may only enter French environmental zones (“Zones à Circulation Restreinte”) if they have the emission sticker “Crit’Air”. The cities of Paris, Lille, Lyon, Grenoble and Strasbourg have now introduced such environmental zones, other communities may follow at any time. Detailed information can be obtained from the French authorities.
Tolls for tunnels and bridges
Tunnels and bridges, in addition to French highways, connect the country of France and Europe, so traveling Europeans and French quickly get to the vacation destination. European countries are connected to each other with tunnels and bridges. In the following tunnels and on bridges of inland and foreign countries, a toll is raised to drive on the roads.

Vehicle classes
The liber-t toll box can be used with all category 1, 2 and 5 vehicles (vehicles which are under 3m height and under 3,5 t weight).
For class 3 and class 4 vehicles (vehicles with a height of >3m and a weight of >3.5t or more than 2 axles) you need a TIS-PL toll box. In practice, however, the boundaries between vehicle classes are often interpreted differently. Vehicles over 3.5 tons but under 3 meters high therefore require the liber-t toll box for passenger cars. Only if a vehicle is significantly over 3.5 tons and 3 meters high, the TIS-PL toll box for vehicle classes 3 and 4 is required.
The measurement is based on the pure vehicle height. Superstructures are not added. The above classifications are based on practical experience. tolltickets does not guarantee the actual classification of the vehicle. This is done automatically at the toll station.
The TIS-PL toll box must be used in France only. For driving in Spain and Portugal use the tolltickets Iberia toll box and wrap the TIS-PL toll box in aluminum foil.
You can use any lane marked with the Télépéage logo “t”. If you have driven into a lane without the “t” symbol, then you must take the vehicle device out of its holder and hand it over to the toll station personnel for recording the transaction manually.
