For how long will the pass be valid
This annual pass will be valid for one year or 200 toll trips, whichever condition is met first. That is, vehicle owners will be able to travel easily on the national highway without making repeated payments.
How to activate the pass
To activate the FASTag Annual Pass, the vehicle owner must first visit the Rajmarg Yatra mobile app or the official website of NHAI. After this, it is necessary to log in with a mobile number or vehicle registration number. FASTag should be installed correctly on the vehicle, and it should be active. After filling in the information, the vehicle details and FASTag ID have to be entered. In some cases, RC, identity card, address proof, and passport-size photo may also have to be uploaded.
Payment process
It is necessary to pay Rs 3000 for activation. This payment can be made only through UPI, net banking, debit card, or credit card. Keep in mind that payment is not possible from the FASTag wallet balance. After payment, a message of activation message is received. Usually, the pass gets activated in 2 hours, although it can also take up to 24 hours.
