Brazil - the largest country of Latin America - also boasts one of the most extensive and expensive toll road networks in the continent. Rodovia Anchieta, Rodovia dos Imigrantes and Rodovia dos Cereais are among the costliest of toll roads in the country. Most of the tolls in Brazil are condensed near the cities of São Paulo and Rio de Janeiro, and are operated by Abertis and CCR Group.
Out of around 70 toll facilities, only one is a toll bridge: Rio–Niterói Bridge, and one is a toll tunnel along the Anhangüera road.

Brazil toll road price
Toll rates in Brazil depend on the toll facility, vehicle type and payment method. It also depends on:
- Road system: Parallel highways, both with double lane, construction site or central barrier
- Road lanes: Double lane roads with central lane and single lane roads with one lane per direction
This implies that despite having multiple toll plazas on the same highway, it may not mean an increase in overall tolls - rather fractioning of the total toll for the length of the road.
| Toll Road | Toll Price for Tags | Toll Price for Cash |
|---|---|---|
| São Paulo (SP) – Limeira (SP) | R$ 30.40 | R$ 30.40 |
| São Paulo (SP) – Uberaba MG BR-050 (SP) | R$ 99.16 | R$ 100.40 |

1. Sem Parar [3]
2. ConectCar [4]
3. C6 Taggy [5]
4. Move Mais [6]
