Read this before a page

These pages are general information. They are not the road, the law, or a service.

Published · Updated

Who is speaking

The site bgtol.sbs is published by bgtol, Loven, Boulevard Simeonovsko Shose 4, 1700 Sofia, Bulgaria. It is an independent informational publication. It is not BGToll, not the Road Infrastructure Agency, not the Ministry of Interior, not customs, and not any other public authority. Similarity of the name bgtol to the toll system is not affiliation.

What the pages are not

Nothing on this site is legal advice, insurance advice, professional driving instruction, or an instruction to take a particular road on a particular day. Nothing is an offer to sell a vignette, a toll product, an on-board unit, a route pass, a permit, or transport. We do not check plates and we do not represent you before an authority.

Rules move, and signs win

Speed limits, tyre rules, fines, and fees are set by law and by the bodies that administer them. They are amended. A number on this site may lag. A sign, a police direction, a temporary order, and the current text of the law outrank any sentence here. Weather and a closure outrank a description of a pass. Public remarks about a motorway opening in a future year are plans, not a statement that the road is open.

No reliance for a high-stakes decision

Do not rely on this publication as the sole basis for a journey, a compliance decision, a fine, or a payment. Confirm with the competent authority or a qualified adviser where the decision matters. To the extent the law allows, bgtol is not liable for loss that comes from using the pages, from a link to another site, or from a page being incomplete or out of date. Some rights, including rights that cannot legally be excluded for consumers, are untouched by that sentence.

Other websites

Links to a government page or to the toll operator leave bgtol. We do not control those sites and we do not wear their names. We do not redirect the address bgtol.sbs to another domain.

Questions about this notice go to [email protected]. The terms of use sit beside it.

Plain situations

What people ask us to be, and what the answer is.

  • “Is my plate covered?” No answer from this site. The record is not here. Use the operator that holds it.
  • “Can you sell me a weekend vignette?” No. There is no checkout, no account, and no payment of any kind. A description of a weekend period, Friday noon to Sunday midnight, is not a product.
  • “Is the gorge open, and is Hemus finished?” Look at a source dated this morning, and at the sign. Our pages can tell you the gorge has not been a motorway, and that Hemus has had a gap. They cannot clear today’s route.
  • “You are the toll authority, the name is almost the same.” We are not. The notice on every page exists because the names are close. bgtol does not collect a toll and does not speak for the Road Infrastructure Agency.
  • “Is this insurance, a green card, or a fine tariff?” No. Insurance is a separate document. We do not reprint compensatory fine amounts. We do not issue cards.
  • “Can I rely on this in a dispute?” You should not. The pages are general reading. A dispute needs the statute, the sign, and the record from the body that made the decision. If a sentence here is wrong, tell us. That corrects a page. It does not decide a case.
