The Postal Law Modernisation Act applies to all companies that provide postal services, whereby the provision of postal services includes the collection, sorting, forwarding or delivery of parcels to recipients.<\/h4>\n

[\/vc_column_text][\/dhsv_vc_accordion_item][dhsv_vc_accordion_item title=”Who is responsible for labelling?”][vc_column_text css=””]<\/p>\n

Labelling in accordance with Section \u00a7 73 PostModG must be carried out by the provider before parcels reach the delivery area, whereby the delivery area includes transport from the last processing in a fixed facility of the provider.<\/h4>\n

[\/vc_column_text][\/dhsv_vc_accordion_item][dhsv_vc_accordion_item title=”Can you still use your own label?”][vc_column_text css=””]<\/p>\n

Yes, you use your conventional label and stick the necessary sticker on the parcel before sending it. We will provide you with the sticker.<\/h4>\n

[\/vc_column_text][\/dhsv_vc_accordion_item][dhsv_vc_accordion_item title=”Where do I go if I have questions?”][vc_column_text css=””]<\/p>\n

Questions and answers about tolls<\/h2>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”30px” mobile_height=”15px” tablet_height=”30px”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][\/vc_section][vc_section disable_element=”yes” section_background=”bg-gradient-gray”][vc_row css=”.vc_custom_1715081075537{padding-right: 20px !important;padding-left: 20px !important;}”][vc_column][vc_empty_space height=”30px” mobile_height=”15px” tablet_height=”30px”][dhsv_vc_accordion_container][dhsv_vc_accordion_item title=”How is the toll charge calculated?”][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n

The toll rates in Germany are laid down in the Bundesfernstra\u00dfenmautgesetz (German Federal Trunk Road Toll Act). The total amount is calculated by multiplying the distance travelled by a vehicle or vehicle combination on toll roads by the toll rate (cents\/km). The toll rate includes a percentage for the air and noise pollution and infrastructure costs incurred.<\/h4>\n

[\/vc_column_text][\/dhsv_vc_accordion_item][dhsv_vc_accordion_item title=”When is the toll paid?”][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n

The toll levy will be shown as a separate invoice item. In this way, trans-o-flex ensures transparency and emphasises that these are government charges that the company has to pay via its transport partners.<\/h4>\n

[\/vc_column_text][\/dhsv_vc_accordion_item][dhsv_vc_accordion_item title=”Where can I find the currently valid toll regulation?”][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n

You can find the legal basis for the currently valid toll regulation under:
\nGerman Federal Trunk Road Toll Act (BFStrMG)<\/a>
\nGerman Truck Toll Regulations<\/a>
\nFederal Trunk Road Toll Regulation on Junctions<\/a>
\nToll Collect<\/a><\/h4>\n

[\/vc_column_text][\/dhsv_vc_accordion_item][dhsv_vc_accordion_item title=”Is the toll charge subject to VAT?”][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n

The toll charge is a levy under public law and is not subject to VAT for the person who pays it.
\nIf the forwarding company charges its customers for the toll incurred, however, the corresponding amount is subject to VAT.
\nWe therefore treat the tax liability in the same way as amounts invoiced for services rendered.<\/h4>\n

[\/vc_column_text][\/dhsv_vc_accordion_item][dhsv_vc_accordion_item title=”If I have questions about my invoice, who do I contact?”][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n

If you have any questions about invoices, please do not hesitate to contact our Customer Service Billing team. You can reach us by email at abrechnung@tof.de<\/a>.<\/h4>\n
