Can I drive in Switzerland without a vignette
- No, if you are using a Swiss Motorway, even if it's only for a short stretch, you need to have a vignette. You can avoid using motorways, but it will be time-consuming.
- If you are a tourist, you can use swiss rental cars that have a vignette, so you don't need to buy one.

Where can I buy a Swiss highway vignette
You can purchase the Swiss highway vignette online. It will help you cross the border using the fast lane, without waiting in a long line of people buying vignettes at the border. This will save you time and effort. Other purchasing options of vignettes are at the border (pick the lane for cars without a vignette) and at gas stations near the border in the surrounding countries.
How do I avoid toll roads in Switzerland
You can avoid major highways by avoiding highways with vignette signs at the entry of the highway. Use TollGuru Toll Calculator to find cheapest and alternative routes in Switzerland.
How to calculate tolls in Europe

You can see the cheapest, the fastest, and other optimal routes to your destination. You will see toll plaza(s) on your route, payment methods for each toll gate, discounts, etc. You can specify vehicle attributes - axles, weight, height, emission standards, etc. - to get toll information customized to your vehicle.
