Vehicle owners can bring their ID card, driving license and other documents to the ETC service outlet and consult the staff to check whether their car has ETC. The significance of ETC processing is as follows: 1. The bank's application procedures and formalities for ETC special channels are strict.

I think checking whether I've applied for an ETC is actually quite simple. As someone who frequently drives on highways, ETC allows me to pass through toll stations quickly, saving both time and fuel costs. First, take a look at the left side of your car's front windshield to see if there's a small box installed—that's called an OBU device. If it's there, it means you've already applied. Second, check your bank card statements. ETC is usually linked to a credit or debit card, so look for any ETC-related charges or records of card application. Third, download an official ETC app, such as Yuekatong or the ETC service in Alipay, and enter your license plate number and ID card to check your status online. If you're still unsure, call the customer service hotline—the national number is 12122—and ask your service provider for clarification. Make it a habit to check the indicator light on your ETC device while driving so you can spot any issues early. Bonus tip: ETC also accumulates points that can be exchanged for gifts, so don't miss out on these little perks!
