How to Check if a Vehicle Has ETC?

[IsabelaLynn]

To check whether a vehicle has ETC, the method is as follows: Currently, there is no online channel to check whether your new car has been registered for ETC by the previous owner. You need to bring relevant documents such as your ID card and vehicle license to an ETC service outlet and consult the staff. Below is the relevant information: 1. Cancellation method: The staff will contact the previous owner through the database and ask them to cancel the ETC at the bank where it was originally registered. If the previous owner cannot be contacted, the staff can only forcibly cancel the old ETC information in the background so that the new owner can apply for a new ETC service. 2. Cancellation time: If the previous owner is in the same province, the ETC cancellation can be completed in about a week. If the ETC was registered in another province, since ETC data is independent across provinces, the local institution will need to contact the relevant authorities in the other province, which takes more time. The processing time is about 45 days. If the new owner and the previous owner registered the ETC at the same bank, the bank also has the authority to cancel the previous owner's information.
