What is FASTag Annual Pass?

The FASTag annual pass is a prepaid tolling plan introduced by the National Highway Authority of India (NHAI) and the Indian Highways Management Company Limited (IHMCL) exclusively for non-commercial private vehicles. The annual pass is priced at ₹3,000 including GST, convenience and all other charges. It offers 200 toll-free trips with a validity of one year of travel on designated National Highways (NH) and National Expressways. 

How to Recharge FASTag Annual Pass?

The FASTag annual pass is a one-time prepaid payment plan, which doesn’t require ‘recharge’ during its 1-year validity unless you complete 200 trips. To purchase or renew the pass follow the below steps:

  1. Confirm Eligibility: Ensure your vehicle has an active FASTag linked to its Vehicle Registration Number (VRN) and properly affixed to the windshield. Make sure the FASTag is not marked as blacklisted.
  2. Visit Official Platforms: Head to the Rajmarg Yatra App or the NHAI/MoRTH websites.
  3. Fill Your Details: Log in with your FASTag ID and vehicle details.
  4. Make Payment: Pay ₹3,000 using digital payment methods like UPI, debit/credit card, or net banking.
  5. Activation: The pass is activated within two hours of payment, and you’ll receive an SMS confirmation.

After 200 trips or one year (whichever comes first), the toll payments revert to your regular FASTag account. To continue benefits, repurchase the pass again by repeating the process and paying ₹3,000. No auto-renewal is available for the new subscription, and it expires after one year from the date of purchase.

How to Download FASTag Statement?

A FASTag statement consists of a detailed record of toll transactions such as, travel dates, travel time, toll plaza details, and amount deducted. To download the statement follow the below mentioned steps:

  1. Access your FASTag issuer’s website or mobile app or the NETC portal using your registered credentials.
  2. Look at your app or website for ‘Transaction History’, or ‘Statements’.
  3. Select your date range for which you want to check the statement.
  4. Select the format, such as PDF or Excel, and click ‘Download’ to save the statement for offline access or record-keeping.

Conclusion

The FASTag Annual Pass is a budget-friendly option for travellers. With a one-time payment of ₹3,000 for the annual pass, you can get up to 200 toll-free trips, resulting in easier toll payments, reduction in traffic jams, and smoother journey on National Highways.
