Austria to Introduce €160 Fee at Schattendorf Border Crossing With Hungary
Posted date: 04 Jul 2023
The Austrian authorities are planning on introducing a €160 fee, €140 of which reimbursable, at the border crossing between Austrian town of Schattendorf (Somfalva) and the Hungarian village of Ágfalva (Agendorf).
The plan has been revealed last Tuesday during a joint press conference in the Schattendorf municipal office between the mayor of Schattendorf, Thomas Hoffmann (SPÖ), the mayor of Ágfalva, Zsuzsanna Pék, and lawyer Johannes Zink, SchengenVisaInfo.com reports.
Due to construction works for a pedestrian zone there, which have cost the Austrian municipality around €110,000, the border crossing has been closed since March 1, causing difficulties for thousands of Hungarian commuters forced to take a detour every day.
