Questions and answers

In addition to the National Toll Collection Provider, the toll can also be collected by the EETS Provider with whom the carrier will have entered into a contract.

The start of operation of the new toll system will depend on the timing of the public tenders that are currently underway. That refers to the tenders for the Electronic Toll System and Toll Services. Once the winners are announced, the process of building the new toll system will start according to the planned schedule.

The tenders for the Electronic Toll System and the Toll Services have already been evaluated. In the first tender for the Electronic Toll System, the most advantageous bid was from the company CzechToll worth 13,7 million Eur without VAT. In the second tender for the Toll Services, the most advantageous bid was from CzechToll worth 28,7 million Eur without VAT.      

The EETS service – European Electronic Toll Service - is the extension of the existing national toll systems by the possibility of toll payment with a single on-board unit and a single contract with a single EETS provider in several EU countries. It is an international service that will allow carriers to move across the particular EU countries more easily.

A single contract, single payment, single on-board unit throughout the European Union. The European Electronic Toll Service (EETS) will simplify crossing borders and the payment system significantly.

EETS will give carriers the opportunity to move with only one OBE in several EU countries with no need to have multiple registrations and multiple OBUs. The international service will thus help with smooth crossing of borders, thus eliminating registration delays. Another advantage will be the simplification of toll payment, since payment under a single contract in several countries in which the EETS provider operates at the same time will be possible. Payment of toll and fuel under one contract/fuel card will also be possible. By changing several national OBUs into a single OBE, the driver will finally have fewer distracting elements at the steering wheel.

Payment of toll and fuel under one contract/fuel card will also be possible. By changing several national OBUs into a single OBE, the driver will finally have fewer distracting elements at the steering wheel.

It depends on the particular EETS Provider and their scope of operation. Each EETS Provider has a list of the countries where they operate the EETS, which means that each country has several EETS Providers. However, the EETS service is only offered for the countries within the EU.

 

The OBU (On-BoardUnit) is the term for a classic national on-board unit, the OBE (On-BoardEquipment) means an EETS on-board unit for several countries.

The technical implementation of the EETS functionality was finalized at the end of 2022. The technical-operational concepts were handed over in mid-2023. The first tests being part of the accreditation were launched at the beginning of the summer. At the end of the accreditation process, a pilot operation will take place. The expected start of the sharp operation should be towards the end of 2023.      

Accreditation with the first EETS providers should be completed towards the end of 2023. We expect the registration to be launched at that time. 

Yes, if I want to use the EETS service, the OBU will have to be replaced by an OBE. It is assumed that each EETS Provider will have their own OBE.

 

No, it is not necessary. Payment of toll is mandatory, whether it is made through a National Provider or an EETS Provider, it is at the discretion of the carrier. Registration in EETS depends on the carrier's preferences, if the carrier wants to remain in the national system, he does not have to change anything.

Each EETS provider should have their own network of sales and contact points where registration should be possible.

The parameters of the toll system (the toll rates, charging range) remain the same for both the National Provider and the EETS Provider.

EETS is the European toll system which represents a certain superstructure over the national toll systems and offers selected toll payment services within several EU countries. The toll system that is in the tender process is a form of a National Toll System, which means that it will cover toll collection in the Slovak Republic, EETS support as well as other toll collection services outside the scope of EETS.
