Did you not select a country of transit when placing your order? You can view the transit conditions and fees.

It depends on the company. The last time I rented from Euro, I was able to go to Germany without any additional fees, and all of the highways in Germany were also free.

You must inform the car rental company in advance if you plan to cross borders. Otherwise, you may encounter some trouble.

Generally, there is a sticker for the annual toll fee on the car when we pick it up in Switzerland, so there is no need to buy it again. The highways in Germany are free of charge.

Ask the fellow wuzhuos for some experience. I plan to drive on my own from Zurich, Lucerne, Interlaken in the first three days. Then go to Murren for two days, Grindelwald for two days. On the last day, I plan to drive along Montreux, Lavaux, Lausanne, and arrive at Geneva airport at night. Because, the car will be parked in Lauterbrunnen for two days in the middle, and the car will almost not be used during the two days in Grindelwald. Do you think I should return the car at the East Station of Interlaken before going to Murren, take the train, and then take the train to Geneva, or drive all the way ? Switzerland Q&A

Hello fellow car owners, I wonder if any of you have encountered being charged by the car dealership? (Main reason: The other party was fully responsible for the accident, and they had full coverage insurance while we only had basic insurance. When we returned the car, the dealership said the other party would compensate us. Six months later, we received a notification saying that they were investigating whether there were any damages to the car that were not caused by a third party, and then they charged over 10,000 yuan to our credit card. How should we handle this?) ? Switzerland Q&A
