Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Can I use the annual pass for my taxi?
Now, no. The FASTag UN annual pass is strictly for private, non-commercial cars only. Thus, commercial vehicles must pay the standard rates.
What happens if I use all 200 crossings before the year ends?
Actually, the pass expires as soon as you hit the 200-limit. Therefore, you would need to purchase a new pass or use your wallet balance.
Is the pass valid on private state highways?
Actually, this specific pass works primarily on NHAI-managed national highways. Thus, you should check the list of 1,150 plazas on the Rajmarg Yatra app.
Do I need a new FASTag sticker for the annual pass?
Actually, no. You link the annual pass to your existing FASTag ID and sticker. Therefore, there is no need to change your hardware.
