How to issue an invoice for highway ETC card?
2 Answers
Users can apply for highway ETC card invoices online directly. After passing through the highway, there are two types of electronic toll bills that can be applied for: Value-added Tax Electronic Ordinary Invoice for Toll Road Passage Fees and Toll Road Passage Fee Financial Bills. Precautions for using highway ETC cards: 1. Timing is key: In the past, when highways were toll-free, many car owners would enter the highway early and arrive at the toll station just in time to enjoy a full free passage. However, this trick of 'entering the highway early' may no longer work now, as ETC has started to implement segmented billing. 2. Pay attention to lanes: If you enter the highway through an ETC lane, it's best to exit through an ETC lane as well. Avoid mixing ETC and manual lanes to prevent incorrect billing.
I often use my ETC card to get expressway invoices, and it's super easy. After driving on the expressway with ETC, I just open the ETC app on my phone or the linked bank app, like China Construction Bank or Alipay's ETC service. After logging in, I go to the transaction records page, select a specific trip record, and click to apply for an electronic invoice. Usually, within a minute, I receive the invoice via email or can directly download the PDF file in the app. Just remember to set up your receiving email in advance to avoid missing it. ETC is really convenient—not only does it save time by avoiding tollbooth queues, but it also eliminates the hassle of collecting paper tickets. Nowadays, with the widespread promotion of electronic invoices by the government, using them for reimbursement is no problem. Occasionally, there might be slight delays during system updates, but just wait a bit—it won’t affect usage. The key is to keep your account info complete and avoid entering the wrong password to prevent delays.
