In order for you to have an eTag installed, you must bring your ARC and vehicle registration with you to a nearby FETC location. FETC locations offer e-tag installation services, with potential variations in available sites across different cities. Visiting the local Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) is advisable, as they may provide onsite e-tag installation services or direct you to suitable locations. Once your eTag is installed, you can replenish your account by printing a ticket at an iBon machine (typically found at 7-11 stores) and paying at the register. If your eTag is not linked to a credit card, lacks sufficient balance, or is not affixed to your vehicle, toll charges will be billed via mail to the vehicle’s registration address.

Toll Roads in Taiwan

As of now three north-south bound freeways in Taiwan are tolled: National Freeway No. 1, National Freeway No. 3, and National Freeway No. 5.[1] Tolls are exclusively collected electronically through overhead gantries featuring multi-lane free flow, rather than at conventional toll booths. Taiwan holds the distinction of being the first country to transition from manual tolling to fully electronic, multi-lane free-flow tolling across all its freeways. The system utilizes eTags – on-board devices that wirelessly communicate with scanners, automatically deducting tolls based on distance traveled.

For rates and trip planning, Visit the Taiwan toll calculator to calculate the tolls and fuel costs to travel across the country.

Who manages toll roads in Taiwan?

Far Eastern Electronic Tolling Company (FETC): This private company operates the Electronic Toll Collection (ETC) system used on the National Freeways. They manage the technical aspects, including the gantries, back-end systems, and user accounts for the ETC system.

What is electronic toll collection(ETC) in Taiwan?

ETC in Taiwan stands for Electronic Toll Collection. It's a system that allows for automatic toll payments on National Freeways without stopping at traditional toll booths.

How to pay tolls in Taiwan?

There are the ways tolls can be paid:

  • Electronic Toll Collection (ETC): Vehicles have an eTAG device attached, which communicates with overhead gantries on the freeways.
  • License Plate Recognition: If you drive without an eTag or prepaid ticket, the system captures your license plate information. You will receive a bill by mail with a payment deadline.
  • Non-ETC Payment: For those without an eTAG can pay using cards or cash.

How to apply for eTAG in Taiwan?

To have an eTAG installed, you must bring your ARC and vehicle registration to a nearby FETC location. FETC locations offer eTAG installation services, with potential variations in available sites across different cities. Visiting the local Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) is advisable, as they may provide onsite eTAG installation services or direct you to suitable locations.
