Fjellinjen is one of the regional toll companies created following the Government’s decision to merge the toll companies into five regional companies. Fjellinjen became the first regional company when Minister of Transportation and Communications, Ketil Solvik-Olsen signed a new toll charge agreement with the company. The reform was proposed by Prime minister Solberg's cabinet and has four parts – a reduction of toll road operators, separation of the toll service provision for tolls and ferry tickets from the toll road companies, an interest compensation scheme for toll road loans, and a simplification of the price and discount schemes.

All of Fjellinjen's toll stations uses the Norwegian electronic toll collection system AutoPASS. A valid AutoPASS or EasyGo transponder (such as BroBizz) are valid in Norwegian toll stations through the EasyGo partnership.
