New Delhi: The Ministry of Road Transport and Highways (MoRTH) has announced the rollout of a FASTag-based Annual Pass for private vehicles, effective August 15, 2025.

Priced at Rs 3,000, the pass will be valid for one year from activation or up to 200 trips —whichever comes earlier.

The pass is exclusively designed for non-commercial private vehicles, including cars, jeeps, and vans, and will be applicable across all National Highways in the country.

According to officials, this move is aimed at easing congestion, reducing disputes at toll plazas, and simplifying toll payments for commuters. It is also expected to address concerns over toll collection points situated within a 60-km radius.

A dedicated link for pass activation and renewal will be made available on the Rajmarg Yatra App, and the official websites of the National Highways Authority of India (NHAI) and MoRTH.

“This is a step toward a faster, dispute-free highway experience and a unified toll payment solution for private vehicle owners,” a ministry spokesperson said.
