FasTag Annual Pass: Benefits
The pass offers a validity of one year or up to 200 toll plaza crossings—whichever is reached first—from the date of activation. NHAI confirmed that the benefit applies across all national highways in India equipped with FASTag toll systems. Once activated, users can travel without the need for frequent wallet top-ups for toll payments until the limit is reached.
The key advantage of the Annual Pass is the convenience it offers to frequent travellers. It eliminates the need to recharge the FASTag account multiple times during the year, ensuring uninterrupted passage at toll plazas. The fixed cost also allows users to plan their annual travel budget for highway toll expenses in advance. By reducing the number of recharge transactions, NHAI expects the pass to contribute to faster toll operations and less congestion.

The app is available for download from the Google Play Store for Android users and the Apple App Store for iOS users. To activate the pass, users must log in to their account, select the Annual Pass option, complete the ₹3,000 payment, and confirm activation. The validity period starts from the activation date.
