Toll Rates

Various toll charges apply to M50 users under eFlow barrier-free tolling. These rates depend on:

  • Type of vehicle
  • Whether you are registered through the electronic tag or number plate systems, or non-registered

Registering for either a tag or number plate based payment account is cheaper than payment through non-registration. Register today

Exemptions

Some types of vehicle and road users are exempt and do not have to pay M50 tolls. These include:

  • Motorcycles
  • Specially adapted vehicles for disabled persons

Penalties

To avoid any penalties, we strongly recommend that you register for an electronic tag or a video (number plate) account. These are the cheapest and easiest ways to pay the toll.

For unregistered users, if you don't pay your toll before 8pm on the day following your journey, a penalty of €3 is added to the outstanding amount.

If you fail to pay the toll and this €3 penalty within the next 14 days, a further penalty of €39.50 will be levied.

Failure to pay the full amount due within a further 56 days will result in an additional €98.00 penalty. Then if you still have not paid the total amount due, legal proceedings will be initiated.
