Icelandic Road Tolls and Tunnels
In the north of Iceland there is a tunnel called Vaðlaheiðargöng. The tunnel lies between Akureyri and Húsavík. Vaðlaheiðargöng is the ONLY road toll in Iceland. However there is no toll gate. So how can you pay? The system in Vaðlaheiðargöng is an automatic system which reads the license plate number on the car when you drive through the tunnel.
How can I pay?
1. Visit www.tunnel.is
2. Enter the license plate number
You can find the license plate number on the keychain.
3. Press confirm for make, color and weight of the car.
Make sure you entered the correct license plate number.
4. Choose a period
a. For a single trip you can choose expiration date now.
b. For multiple trips you can choose expiration date at the end of your rental/other date. All trips until the expiration date will be directly charged to your credit card.

What happens if I don't pay myself?
If the trip through the tunnel is not paid within 3 hours after you pass through the tunnel Dollar Rent a Car is charged for the tunnel fee. Therefore Dollar will charge your credit card for the tunnel fee + administration fee.
