Toll information
The motorway toll is determined by the sum of the kilometres for each journey and the related tariff.
The surcharges and taxes provided for by current regulations are then added.
In addition, the different vehicle classes as well as the type of motorway network, i.e. level or mountainous, influence the changes in unit tariffs.
The classification of vehicles, defined by “axle-shape”, follows general criteria applied throughout the Italian motorway network.
Vehicles are divided into five tariff classes: A-B-3-4-5.
The Concessionaire’s kilometre unit rates are periodically revised on the basis of the price-cap formula, which takes into account both the planned inflation rate and productivity and quality indicators.
TOLL CALCULATION AND PAYMENT METHODS
The toll is the amount the user has to pay for using the motorway. It is calculated by multiplying the Concessionaire’s unit tariff (€/km), increased by the amount chosen by ANAS, by the number of kilometres travelled, including the kilometres of junctions, slip roads and free motorway stretches before and after the tollbooth, built and managed by the Concessionaire; the amount obtained, increased by VAT, is rounded to the nearest 10 euro cents as governed by Interministerial Decree no. 10440/28/133 of 12/11/2001 of the Italian Ministry for Infrastructure and Transport and the Italian Ministry for Economy and Finance.
The unit tariff is commensurate with the characteristics of the motorway stretches (level or mountainous) and vehicle class (see Table) and is adjusted annually, by Decree of the Italian Ministry for Infrastructure and Transport in agreement with the Italian Ministry for Economy and Finance and on the basis of what is established in the Single Convention with MIT-SVCA, using a formula that takes into account 70% of the real inflation rate (NIC index) of the last 12 months (1 July-30 June) and the parameter relating to the return on new investments made.
The tariff adjustment is applied without any discretionary power on the part of SALT to all stretches within its remit; however, due to the final rounding, the toll for individual routes may be higher, lower or zero compared to the change in the unit tariff.
UKRAINE HUMANITARIAN EMERGENCY
As per Ordinance no. 876 of 13 March 2022 of the Presidency of the Council of Ministers, Civil Protection Department, exemption of the toll has been arranged for Ukrainian citizens arriving from Ukraine and persons coming from Ukraine, who enter Italy as a consequence of the current events.
The aforementioned exemption will be valid for up to 5 days from entry into Italian territory by those entitled to it.
At the time of transit out of the stations of the undersigned Company, giving preference to manual toll lanes, a duly completed and signed self-certification must be handed over to the collector; the relevant form (in Italian and English) can be downloaded by selecting the corresponding icons below.
In automatic toll lanes controlled by a remote monitoring operator, the user must collect the transit certificate and send it together with the self-certification to the e-mail address emergenzaucraina@salt.it.
TOLL EXEMPTION

j) The vehicles of officials of the Italian Minister for the Interior, A.N.A.S., the General Directorate of the M.C.T.C., the General Inspectorate for Traffic and Road Safety, and the Italian Ministry for Public Works, authorised to carry out traffic police duties”.
Vehicles with CP (Harbour Master’s Office) licence plates and mechanical rescue vehicles authorised to intervene by our Operations Centre are also exempt from paying the toll.
FAILURE TO PAY THE TOLL
If the toll due (in whole or in part) is not paid, a non-payment report will be issued. The latter contains the vehicle’s data (class and number plate), the transit data (date, time, exit tollbooth and entry tollbooth, if available) and the amount to be paid.
The amount due must be paid, without any surcharge, no later than 15 days after the date of issue. If payment is made after this deadline, the amount will be increased by € 2.58 for collection costs (Art. 176(11-bis), New Italian Highway Code).
If the non-payment persists, the forcible debt collection procedure will be activated, with consequent increase of the costs to be borne by the debtor (Art. 373, Italian Highway Code).
Should the non-payment report be issued for reasons not attributable to the customer, no surcharge will be applied to the toll due.
Lastly, it should be noted that: “For toll motorway users without an entry ticket, or who engage with the control facilities improperly with respect to the ticket in their possession, the toll to be paid shall be calculated from the farthest entry station, based on their vehicle class. Nonetheless, users have the right to prove their entry station.” (Article 176(16), Italian Highway Code)
Payment can be made:
- SALT website using VISA, MASTERCARD, DINERS, AMERICAN EXPRESS credit cards
- bank transfer using IBAN IT68E0623012700000036886553 in the name of SALT p.a. Autocisa Stretch, inserting ONLY the number of the toll non-payment report (RMPP) and the vehicle registration number in the payment reference
- Lanes with manual collection managed by the toll collector at SALT stations
- Post Office by paying the amount into postal account no. 14381438 – in the name of SALT p.a. Autocisa Stretch, entering the vehicle registration number and the number of the non-payment number (both indicated on the front) in the postal payment slip reference
In the event of non-payment of the aforementioned amounts, the relevant documents may be forwarded to the relevant Traffic Police Reports Office, for consequent notification of administrative sanctions pursuant to Art. 176(11) and (21) of the Italian Highway Code, for ascertained breach of the obligation to pay a motorway toll (which envisages payment of a fine between € 87.00 and € 345.00, and the loss of 2 points from the offender’s driving licence).

MUTUAL AGREEMENT FOR THE COLLECTION OF TOLL NON-PAYMENT REPORTS
An agreement has been entered into between the listed Motorway Concessionaires to facilitate the payment of Toll Non-Payment Reports (RMPP). Therefore, the payment of an RMPP, issued by any of the listed Motorway Concessionaires, is allowed at any station and/or Service Centre belonging to one of such concessionaires, even if different from the issuing station.
A non-payment report can therefore be settled either manually (with the Collector present) or at one of the Service Centres of any of the following Motorway Concessionaires:
• A5 Quincinetto-Aosta (SAV)
• A7 Serravalle-Milan (Milano Serravalle Milano Tangenziali)
• A10 Savona-Ventimiglia-State Border (Concessioni del Tirreno)
• A11 Viareggio-Lucca (Concessioni del Tirreno)
• A12 Sestri Levante-Livorno (Concessioni del Tirreno)
• A21 Turin-Piacenza (SATAP A21)
• A21 Piacenza-Brescia (Autovia Padana)
• A32 Turin-Bardonecchia (SITAF)
• A33 Asti-Cuneo (Asti-Cuneo)
• A35 Brescia-Milan (BreBeMi)
• A50 Autostrada Tangenziale Ovest di Milano, Milan Western Motorway Ring Road (Serravalle)
• A51 Autostrada Tangenziale Est di Milano, Milan Eastern Motorway Ring Road (Serravalle)
• A52 Autostrada Tangenziale Nord di Milano, Milan Northern Motorway Ring Road (Serravalle)
• A58 Tangenziale Est Esterna di Milano, Milan Outer Eastern Ring Road (Tangenziale Esterna)
Payment of RMPPs at Manual Tollbooths
Due to the fact that it is impossible to verify the database provided for mutual collection in the manual lane, only toll non-payment reports (RMPP) issued no more than 15 days ago, and with an entry station other than “888” (e.g. lost entry ticket) can be settled at manual tollbooths. The Collector cannot accept partial payments.
Payment of RMPPs at Service Centres
Toll non-payment reports (RMPP) can also be settled at one of the Service Centres; in this case, RMPPs with an issue date can also be settled here
