Traffic Fine Payment

Settling your international traffic fines has never been simpler

If you are experienced in renting a car abroad, you may have already come across the following situation.
One bright day, a note regarding the trip you took six months ago arrives by mail, and it's not the kind of reminder you'd like to receive - it's a traffic report.

It may be because of a speed limit sign you missed in Germany, or you may have accidentally entered a restricted traffic zone in Italy without paying attention to the warning sign. It can happen to even the most careful drivers.

First of all, there is no reason to stress. As we have already said, we are with you all the way.

Unfortunately, we are unable to cancel your fine, but we can help and reduce the hassle that can accompany paying a fine in a foreign country.

You can pay for the report according to the details that appear on the report, usually by bank transfer, but sometimes the option to pay on the website using a credit card will also be available.

Do all reports arrive by mail?

No, there are two ways to receive a traffic report abroad:

A report received on the spot - if you received the report already during the trip, and it has a transfer account number (IBAN).
The account details will not always appear on the report. In this case, you must wait to receive the official report from the Authority.
A report that comes through the rental company. That is, the rental company receives the report and turns it over in your name.
In that case:
You will have to pay for the conversion operation fees (between 20 and 50 euros) via credit card; unfortunately, this amount cannot be refunded.
You will receive a notice from the rental company stating that a report has been issued and a conversion has been carried out. You must then wait for the report to reach you from the authority that issued it.

What will happen if I don't pay the report?

In four words - it's not recommended.

If you do not pay the report as soon as it reaches you, it will increase, and additional late payment fines will be added. This way, you will find yourself paying twice or three times at least the original amount you were required to pay. In addition, the enforcement policy of reports in European countries is one of the strictest in the world. Even if you thought the debt was forgotten, you can find yourself in a real problem when you want to enter the same country again, or even another European country.

Are there other options for paying for the report?

As mentioned, the report can be paid through the various banks or via Israel Post.
