So, let's discover the easy process of recharging your TMB FASTag so that your travel continues without any hitches.

Understanding TMB FASTag
Jump Tag Icon

FASTag is a pioneering innovation that acts as a catalyst in automating toll collection. This 10X5 cm compact tag is key in upending the traditional toll payment process. 

Each TAG comes embedded with a Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) chip and an antenna, all concealed under layers of high-quality paper. This rectangular tag must be affixed to your vehicle's windscreen upon activation. 

As you approach toll plazas equipped with dedicated FASTag lanes, the device readers installed at these plazas read the information stored on the chip inside your FASTag. Once verified, the applicable toll amount is automatically deducted from your linked prepaid account.
