 Poster: A snowHead
|
You guys seem to be quicker than google so here goes.
I’m currently in the 3V. Picking my son up from Geneva airport in a couple of weeks.
I’m in our UK car. We have a Emovis toll tag and the French Crit Air sticker.
Having done a quick google I think the sticker is all that is required for Swiss toll.
So I think I’m good to go. Can anyone confirm?
Also does anyone know what short term car park I should use once I’m there? With the roof box I’m sitting at around 2.2m high.
Cheers guys.

Depending on what route you take, you'll need a Swiss vignette for a very short part of the Swiss motorway

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

Looking at google maps the A41 seems to be the most direct route.
Is there somewhere along this route to buy one?
Google was saying that if I had a French Crit air, I did not need a Swiss vignette?
Regarding vehicle height it looks like most car parks are 2m. So I’ll probably remove the roof box.

You can buy the vignette at the border - in fact you probably won't have a choice, as they often have people checking cars as they drive through, on the motorway route. It's about £30.
If you want to save the money, then I _think_ you can go in via the D1201 and central Geneva instead, and add c. 30mins to your journey depending on time of day. Same again on the way out. If you value your time at more than £30/hour, then clearly the vignette becomes a no-brainer.

You can now buy an electronic virtual Swiss vignette online, registered against your UK vehicle reg no.
Beware intermediary sites that aren’t the official one and which charge a ‘fee’.
The official site is www.e-vignette.ch and this just charges the usual CHF 40. This will be valid through to 1st. Feb. 2025
If you have a French Crit’Air then you do not need the Geneva region equivalent clean air certificate, called a Stick’Air as it doubles as both. But it’s nothing to do with the motorway vignette.

You'll need to Register first of course.

Cheers guys.
Just been doing some more googling.
I believe the French Crit air is ok for Geneva city as an air pollution sticker.
I found the E vignette website which replaces the need to pull off motorway to go and buy the sticker.
