I am driving through France to Vera Playa and i will be on my own apart from my dog, so i heve been looking at the tags you can add to the windscren so that i wont have to junp out the car and go round the other side to get a ticket or to pay.  Does anyone know if you can get one tag that does both France and Spain?

Thanks

Shouldn’t need to pay tolls in Spain if you take right route down through France. I usually go via West side of France.

Hi, I use "Emovis Tags" they are based in Harrogate, I drive from Santander to Almeria each year and find the tags work great, I prefer to get from A to B quickly and dont mind paying the road tolls. I also drive on my own and find using the Electronic Tag system is much less hassle than getting out of a RHD car to pay the toll levy on the left hand side. I'm not sure if the same electronic tag works in Spain & France but if you google Emovis Tags I'm sure this will be explained.

Look online. I have looked at various sites re tags for Spain as only drive regularly from Corvera towards Vera. I understand that you need different tags for France and Spain.

The emovis tags work fine, and yes you need a bip and go tag for Spain, however they only accept payments from a UK bank account. 

However, if you choose your route, you can avoid all tolls without a massive increase in journey time.
