Document 246 - Amendment to the Act on Roads - EU

Published date: 30.06.2026 |Processed date: 30.06.2026 |Session 10
Submitters: Vláda

Summary

Scope: § 21–§ 21a; pages 1–24.

The bill amends the rules for highway toll stickers by eliminating the automatic annual adjustment based on inflation and the length of the highway network and instead directly sets the rates in the law starting in 2027. It maintains the current fee levels, including discounted rates for certain low-emission and natural gas vehicles, and eliminates the Ministry of Transportation’s obligation to announce the rates annually via a notice. The main impact is greater predictability and a “freeze” on the price of highway toll stickers for drivers and business owners. At the same time, lower revenue growth is expected for the State Transport Infrastructure Fund, which may limit funding for transport infrastructure.

Resolution of the Committee on Economic Affairs on Parliamentary Print No. 246/0

Processed date: 04.09.2026

Scope: Section 21; pages 1–4.

The Economic Committee recommends that the Chamber of Deputies approve the government’s bill on highway toll stickers, with amendments. In all relevant provisions, the validity period “1 day” is changed to the more precise “24 hours,” which clarifies the duration of a one-day vignette. The Committee further allows for only technical legislative amendments without changing the substantive content of the bill.

Amendments and other proposals relating to Parliamentary Print No. 246/0

Processed date: 11.09.2026

Scope: Part One–Part Three; § 21–§ 42a; pages 1–6.

The proposals amend the rules governing highway toll stickers: the term “one-day sticker” is changed to “sticker valid for 24 hours.” One proposal introduces an annual sticker limited to a single highway at half the standard annual rate and regulates its registration as well as penalties for improper use. Another proposal would allocate 6% of the excise tax revenue from mineral oils to the regions based on the length of Class II and Class III roads. No motion to reject the bill was filed.

Additional document 3

Resolution of the Committee on Economic Affairs on Parliamentary Print No. 246/0

Processed date: 18.09.2026

Scope: Section 95; pages 1–4.

The Economic Committee recommends that the Chamber of Deputies approve its Amendment A to revise the rules governing highway toll stickers and does not recommend Amendments B1 and B2 proposed by Representative Papajanovský. The resolution establishes the order of voting in the third reading; adoption of proposals A would prevent a vote on proposal B2. The Committee also authorizes the rapporteur to propose technical legislative amendments, if necessary, and to present the Committee’s opinions in the Chamber of Deputies.

Proposal 1731

246 - 1731 - Lucie Sedmihradská

Discovered date: 11.09.2026 | Processed date: 11.09.2026

Scope: Part One–Part Three; Section 3; pages 1–2.

The amendment expands the original law on changes to the budgetary allocation of taxes so that regions receive a 6% share of the nationwide gross revenue from the excise tax on mineral oils. The funds are to be distributed based on the length of Class II and Class III roads in each region, which is intended to support their maintenance and financing. The Ministry of Finance will determine the regions’ shares annually by decree based on data from the Ministry of Transportation; a transitional provision will allow these shares to be set for the first year of the law’s effectiveness.

Proposal 1733

246 - 1733 - Jan Sviták

Discovered date: 11.09.2026 | Processed date: 11.09.2026

Scope: Sections 21–42a; page 1.

The amendment retains the automatic adjustment of highway toll sticker prices based on inflation and the extent of the highway network; it thus repeals the changes that would have introduced fixed rates starting in 2027. At the same time, it introduces an annual toll sticker valid only for one specific highway at half the price of a standard annual toll sticker. This is intended to encourage local commuting on highways, reduce detours through towns, and maintain revenue for the construction and maintenance of transportation infrastructure.
