Actual measures in Hungary


E-toll system for buses and coaches as from 1 April 2024

Domestic and international buses and coaches over gross permitted weight of 3,5 tonnes will be introduced into the e-toll system (HU-GO) on the whole territory of Hungary from 1 April 2024. (Lorries have been travelling by HU-GO already for over 10 years.)

What bus operators have to do now:

••• please create a user account of your comany and register your buses on the website hu-go.hu! You can choose from 11 languages.

••• buy or make installed an on-board-unit (OBU) which (also) can be used for Hungarian road toll payment. By the registration a pre-pay account platform will be created automatically. By this way, you will have a contractual relationship with the National Toll Payment Service company.

••• you have to choose an audited toll declaration operator (Hungarian payment supporter service company) from this list. This supporter will transmit the electronic signals of your on board unit for the National Toll Payment Service company.

••• if you want to choose a post-payed method, please make a contract with Kupon Kft.


! VERY IMPORTANT! Do not add an ammount to the OBU device of your buses (which have been already registrated in HU-GO system) until March 31 2024, because until then the system will deduct the toll for every vehicle that passes through, so you paying unnecessarily. It will not be possible to reclaim it! Only add an amount to the device after March 31!


 Without HU-GO registration the vehicle can only travel with a route ticket, which is valid for only one way and 24 hours on the day after purchase. The price of one-way ticket is not refundable.


Concerning buses and coaches there are 2 different categories: category of M2 (buses up to 5 tonnes) and M3 (buses over 5 tonnes). The difference in fees and the exact amounts will be announced in a government decree. Further information: hu-go.hu or nemzetiutdij.hu



HU-GO: new structure, categories and toll rates as from 1 January 2024

From 1 January 2024 many changes got into force at HU-GO toll system. Please pay attention for the choose of number of axles! Heavy good transport vehicles of 5 or more axle have to apply category "J5" in HU-GO!

 EN: HU-GO - J5 toll category:
The J5 toll category has been introduced into the HU-GO e-toll system, which must be set in case of five- or more axle tolled vehicles. (Only the four-axle tolled vehicles belong to the J4 category.) In order the right toll payment and also to avoid unauthorized road usages and accidental penalties please, set the right category for your vehicle. We ask our Contracted Toll Payers who have five- or more axle tolled vehicles that – in case, if it had not set until 31.12.2023 - set the J5 category immediately on the HU-GO platform or on the on-board unit (OBU), if it is suited for that. More changes happened in the HU-GO e-toll system also, you can find the information about these here!

 D: HU-GO - J5 Mautkategorie:
Die J5 Mautkategorie hat in das HU-GO E-Maut System eingeführt, die muss im Fall die mautpflichtigen Fahrzeuge mit 5 oder mehr Achsen eingestellt werden. (Nur die Kraftfahrzeuge mit vier Achsen gehören in die Gebührenkategorie J4.) Für die richtige Mautzahlung, wie auch die unberechtigt Straßennutzung und allfällige Strafe zu vermeiden, bitten wir unsere verträglichen Mautzahler mit fünf- oder mehrachsigen Fahrzeugen – im Fall, wenn die bis zum 31. Dezember 2023 nicht eingestellt wurde - auf der HU-GO-Plattform oder auf dem Bordgerät (wenn das verwendbar darauf) unverzüglich die J5 Kategorie zu einstellen. Mehrere Änderungen sind in das HU-GO E-Maut System auch vorgegangen, Sie finden die Information über diese hier!

Hungary – Traffic order during the upcoming World Athletics Championships and the National Holiday

The most significant sports event in Hungary's history to date, the World Athletics Championships will be held in Budapest between 19-27 August, 2023. The celebration of the founding of Hungary also falls at the time of the sports event. During the two occasions a total of almost two hundred road traffic restrictions will come into effect on the city's roads. Traffic will be coordinated by the Budapest Police Headquarters (BRFK).

The venue of the sports event will be the National Athletic Center in the southern part of the city, besides the street running competitions will be held in downtown Budapest. 2.000 athletes from 200 countries, 8.000 sports diplomats, and hundreds of thousands of guests and sports fans are expected to attend this worldwide event. Apart from that, around 1 million participants are expected for the fireworks display on the 20th of August.

It is important to know that the closures and diversions already started on the 3rd of August 2023 for transport companies operating with tourist buses in the capital, as well for small goods vehicles and trucks. The restrictions will last until 15 of September, by which time traffic will return to normal.

 

Truck traffic in South Pest and Csepel Island:

The National Athletic Center is located to the south of the bridge Rákóczi, between Soroksári street and the Danube (map), where for many years, heavy goods vehicle traffic has had purposeful, permit-free traffic in practice. Mostly through the nearby industrial areas and due to the service of logistics parks and facilities on the northern tip of Csepel Island. As this part of the city will be particularly affected during the competition, truckers in the southern part of the capital should also expect bans and traffic disruptions, especially in the vicinity of Soroksári street, Weiss Manfréd street, Jenő Kvassay Street, Közvághóíd, Rákóczi-bridge.

 

During the weekend of the national holiday, the ban for trucks will be following:

19 August, 2023 (Saturday) from 3:00 PM - to 20 August (Sunday) until 10:00 PM (the ban applies to all trucks with a maximum permissible total weight of 7.5 t).

 

Budapest Ferenc Liszt International Airport (BUD):

Heavy passenger traffic is also expected on the road leading to Ferihegy airport, as well as on the M0 ring road and the roads leaving from the airport (M3, M4, M5).

 

Important for drivers of tour buses:

For ten days, a parking ban will come into effect on 21 August 2023 from 00:00 until 31 of August, 24:00 at the bus parking place of square Dózsa György (under Buda Castle). It will also be extremely difficult for buses to drive in the city center, Városliget and Hősök tere will be the scene of continuous restrictions too. On the national holiday of 20 of August, the entire city center and all the downtown Danube bridges will be closed according to the practice of previous years.
