Overview


FASTag is an electronic toll collection system in India operated by the National Highways Authority of India (NHAI). It is a device that employs Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) technology that allows toll payments to be deducted directly from the prepaid account linked to it. So, instead of paying in cash at toll plazas, you automatically pay through your linked account.

The mobile number linked to FASTag is essential as you receive notifications about toll transactions and balance information. When you change your mobile number, you will want to update this information in your FASTag account. Here, you can get information on changing phone numbers in FASTag.
