Where can I apply for ETC?

ETC can be processed at bank branches, expressway service areas, and other institutions. Applicants need to provide the original and photocopies of the vehicle owner's valid ID card and vehicle license. If the application is not made by the owner, a valid ID card of the agent is also required. The photocopy of the vehicle license should include the page with the most recent annual inspection seal. A postal credit card application form is needed, as this credit card will be used to bind the ETC card. After obtaining the credit card, two swipes with the POS receipt will allow you to collect and install the ETC onboard device for free at designated postal outlets, with no additional fees. Applicants must be between 18 and 60 years old and own a vehicle in their name. ETC stands for Electronic-Toll-Collection, meaning electronic toll collection system. The required documents include the original and photocopies of the vehicle owner's valid ID card and vehicle license. If the application is not made by the owner, a valid ID card of the agent is also required. The photocopy of the vehicle license should include the page with the most recent annual inspection seal. A bank card for deducting expressway tolls is needed. Applicants must be between 18 and 60 years old and own a vehicle in their name. Here are some precautions for ETC installation: Do not obstruct the view; it is best to install it behind the rearview mirror: Many car models have a steeply angled windshield, which can reduce the driver's field of vision. If this is not considered during ETC installation, it may increase the driver's blind spots. Install it behind the rearview mirror on the right side to avoid blocking the view. Do not interfere with charging: The ETC electronic tag consumes power but generally does not require charging or battery replacement, as it has a solar panel on the back for self-charging. Therefore, avoid installing it on the blackened areas of the windshield or positions that may block the solar panel. Do not remove it arbitrarily once installed: The button in the middle of the adhesive is an anti-removal lever connected to a switch. Once the electronic tag is installed, the windshield will press the anti-removal lever in. If removed arbitrarily, the lever will pop out and trigger the switch, locking the electronic tag and rendering it unusable. You will then need to visit an ETC service point to unlock it. This is designed to prevent multiple vehicles from sharing one device. When using ETC, note the following: The ETC transaction sensing range is 8 meters. To avoid paying for the vehicle in front due to its faulty ETC device, maintain a distance of more than 10 meters from the vehicle ahead. The ETC lane recognizes vehicles at a speed of 20 km/h. Driving too fast may result in failure to read the vehicle's device information and failed toll deduction. When using a debit card to bind ETC, insufficient balance may also cause toll deduction failure.
