Electronic Toll Tag: Who Qualifies and What You Get
Learn how to use an electronic tag for faster travel through highway toll booths in Mexico.
The Electronic Toll Tag is a device that allows vehicle owners to pass through highway toll booths more quickly using automated sensors.
Who it's for
This scheme is available to vehicle owners who frequently travel on federal highways.
What you get
You receive a tag that acts as a fast-pass. This allows you to pass through toll plazas (casetas) without having to stop and pay with cash manually.
What it costs you
Using this service requires two main costs: a one-time fee to purchase the tag itself and a prepaid balance that you must maintain to cover your travel costs.
The catch to know
You must ensure the tag is placed correctly on your windshield. If it is positioned poorly, the sensors may fail to read it, causing delays at the toll booth.
How to apply
- Visit the official government portal to learn about purchasing a tag.
- Pay the initial purchase fee for the device.
- Load your account with a prepaid balance.
- Securely attach the tag to your vehicle's windshield.
