Bulgaria: Rise in Bulgarian Vignette Stickers’ Price Challenged in Court

A decision of Bulgaria’s government to increase the prices of vignette stickers for motor vehicles from the start of 2016 has been challenged in court, Nova TV reported on Wednesday.

Protesters against the price hike from across the country have lodged a complaint with the Sofia City Administrative Court, challenging the legality of the decision.

They are also seeking a halt in the sales of the new vignette stickers.

The court is expected to rule on the complaint within seven days, Nova TV said.

Motor vehicles travelling on Bulgaria’s motorways and first-class roads must have a vignette sticker attached to the windshield. The current price of the stickers was set in 2008 and hasn’t been changed since.
