M50 toll
The M50 toll motorway[1] in Dublin is the busiest motorway in Ireland. It begins at Dublin Port, running northward through the Dublin Port Tunnel and along a portion of the Airport Motorway. M50 toll motorway then turns west at its junction with the M1, circling the northern, western and southern suburbs of Dublin. Later the M50 toll motorway merges with the M11 at Shankill in South East Dublin. The road forms part of European route E01.
The M50 toll tolling system is a barrier-free type toll system that is to be paid by 8pm the following day. The toll is located between Junction 6 and Junction 7 on the M50 and is clearly marked with purple ‘Toll’ signs overhead. All vehicles using the section of the M50 between Junction 6 (N3 Blanchardstown) and Junction 7 (N4 Lucan) are liable to pay a toll.
The M50 Toll Toll Calculator calculates toll and tolls for all other toll motorways, roads, bridges and tunnels in Ireland for cars, trucks, trailers, caravans, motorhomes and motorcycles for peak and off-peak hours.

How to pay M50 toll
There is no cash payment facility available at the tolling point on the M50. The eFlow Barrier-Free toll system between Junction 6 and Junction 7 records trips by photographing a vehicle’s license plate number. Drivers without an electronic toll tag or video account must pay for their journey prior to 8 pm the following day to avoid late payment penalties. Payment options include:
Eflow account
You can choose between Eflow tag and the video account based upon how frequently you travel on Irish toll roads-
Eflow tag
Eflow tag account is best suited for frequent travelers. With the Eflow[3] tag, you save €1.00 for every M50 toll and without any next-day 8 pm payment deadline. It allows you to save extra for electric vehicles as well. The motorist can choose from prepaid and postpaid payment methods.
Other M50 toll tags

If you haven’t paid for your journey(s) through the M50 toll before 8pm the day after you have travelled, then you have missed the payment deadline. A penalty letter will be issued by eFlow to the registered vehicle owner’s address shortly. Once the penalty letter arrives, you have 14 days from the date of issue to pay the full amount due. If you don’t pay the full balance within the 14 days, further fines are applied.
How much is M50 toll penalty
If you miss the eFlow M50 toll payment deadline, you’ll receive a ‘First Penalty Notice’ (STR). Your STR is a bill from eFlow for the cost of the toll and a €3.00 penalty for having missed the payment deadline. If you do not pay during the 14 day period, a further charge of €41.50 is applied in addition to the previous penalty charged.
How to pay M50 toll penalty
