Dear Customers,
We would like to inform you about the changes in the surcharges for the period of the second quarter of 2025.
Fuel Surcharge – FS
The fuel price situation in Europe remains stable. We continue with the fuel surcharge as set for the first quarter. The exception is Hungary, where we are increasing the FS, due to negative development of fuel prices and exchange rate of Hungarian Forint.
The current amount of the Fuel Surcharge can be found here.
Traction Energy Surcharge – TES
The price of traction energy on the railways of the Slovak Republic has been exceeding the EUR 200 / MWh limit for several consecutive months, which is reflected in the sales prices of 2025. For this reason, we are forced to introduce a traction surcharge for Slovak railway sections. Other TES values remain unchanged.
The current amount of the Traction Energy Surcharge can be found here.
Rail Infrastructure Surcharge – RIS
RIS remains unchanged for Q2.
The current amount of the Rail Infrastructure Surcharge can be found here.
Detour Surcharge – DTS
With the arrival of spring, construction work that significantly limits truck traffic is returning to many Czech and Slovak roads. We must respond to the resulting detours by introducing an appropriate surcharge.
The current amount of the Detour Surcharge can be found here.
Toll
Toll rates remain unchanged from the first quarter of 2025.
