Is a vignette needed to go to Bratislava for a day trip from Vienna?

Accepted answer

You are not at all obligated to use the border crossing at the D4 motorway as Nicolas Formichella is claiming in his answer, but can easily drive from Vienna to Bratislava and avoid road toll in Slovakia.

The easiest way is from the Austrian side to approach the border on the B9 road, cross the border at the Berg/PetrΕΎalka border crossing and then follow the Slovakian road I/61 until you can turn left onto the Most SNP bridge crossing the Danube and after that, you are almost immediately in the city center. It is just a 5 minute drive from the border crossing to the city center and absolutely no need to use a toll road.

The Motorway Patrol has a comprehensive map of what roads are considered charged or not on their site (roads in Orange are charged (i.e you need the vignette))
