Cash payments in euros are also accepted, including 1 and 2 euro coins, as well as 50 cents. Coins of 10 and 20 cents are not accepted. Change can be given in both the national currency and euros.

The toll rates in euros are fixed, and there is no conversion from dinars (RSD) at the current exchange rate. While there is no significant difference in the currency of payment, it is recommended to pay in Serbian dinars.

An electronic device (TAG) allows seamless passage through toll booths, but no discounts are provided for using these devices. The cost of the TAG is approximately 17 euros.
