4G Technology in Europe
field-key__text-body-bottom
With the Europe-wide shutdown of 2G and 3G networks, toll systems are also being modernised: only toll boxes with 4G capability will ensure reliable toll collection in many countries in the long term. Toll boxes that support 2G/3G will gradually stop working.
When you should plan the switch, which countries are affected, and which alternatives will continue to be available for toll collection without a 4G box – you can find out all of this here.

Which countries are switching and what alternatives are available
On 30 September 2026 at 00:00, the Swiss toll service will be deactivated on 2G DKV BOX EUROPE devices. From that time onwards, the service will no longer be available. For journeys in Switzerland, only 4G-enabled toll boxes may be used from 1 October 2026.
Your alternative
In addition to a 4G-capable toll box, we offer you one further option to continue settling Swiss toll charges smoothly after 01 October.
Toll payment via the webshop of the Swiss Federal Office for Customs and Border Security (FOCBS / BAZG)
Pay Swiss toll charges easily online via the webshop of the Federal Office for Customs and Border Security (BAZG) and select the DKV Card as your payment method.
You can book your journeys up to 5 days in advance and should specify the expected number of kilometres as accurately as possible. After the journey, you can adjust the details to the actual kilometres driven within 5 days.

France, the Netherlands and Germany have also already announced that they will shut down their 2G-based toll services by the end of 2030 at the latest.
You will soon find out when the switch is planned in each individual country.
