95% of the foreign freight vehicles crossing Bulgaria do not pay vignette tax, Bulgaria’s Minister of Regional Development and Public Works Lilyana Pavlova said.

It will resemble a vignette sticker and will be valid for 24 hours. The amount of the sanction will be enough to prevent infringement attempts, Minister Pavlova further announced.
