War in Ukraine: Suspension of motorway charge sticker and exemption from heavy vehicle charge

Bern, 9.3.2022 - The Federal Office for Customs and Border Security (FOCBS) is lifting the motorway charge sticker requirement for all vehicles transporting Ukrainian refugees or relief goods for Ukraine. In addition, transports of relief goods can be exempted from the performance-related heavy vehicle charge (HVC). The FOCBS thus makes use of the exemptions for humanitarian reasons envisaged in the respective legal bases.
