tolltarifkode

Tolltarifkode is a coded identifier used within toll systems to classify charges for road-based tolls, bridges, ferries, and similar passages. The code helps toll operators, road authorities, and transport companies determine the applicable rate for a given vehicle or trip and to support accurate billing and compliance.

Typically, a tolltarifkode maps to a tariff table that defines rates based on factors such as vehicle type, number of axles, dimensions or weight, emission class, time of day, and route. The codes can be numeric or alphanumeric and are designed to support automated processing and clear rate differentiation across categories.

In practice, the code is associated with a vehicle or trip and is collected through automatic tolling systems, such as onboard units, transponders, or cameras. The toll transaction links the tolltarifkode to the corresponding rate and invoicing record. In some systems, operators can assign or validate the code manually, but modern schemes aim for automatic recognition to streamline processing.

The use and format of tolltarifkode vary by country and operator. There is no universal standard; each toll operator or national system maintains its own tariff catalog and code definitions. In multilingual or cross-border contexts, the term may be translated, but the core concept remains a structured tariff identifier used to determine charges and manage toll revenue.
