Riders who are still using the E-Pass system may want to change to the new system (RFID) while everything is still easy and free.
The first 100,000 units are free, as per the personnel manning the RFID booth at Petron in Pasig. There is no fee to be paid for the sticker and you only have to load a minimum of Php 500 to activate the RFID sticker. The stickers come in two variants, one which can be attached inside a vehicle (car) windshield and another, which is more applicable to motorcycles, which is usually placed on the headlight. The headlight sticker is quite unobtrusive unlike the windshield sticker which sticks out like a sore thumb.
Requirements are the following:
- Photocopy of your OR/CR
- Photocopy of your valid ID
- Php 500.00 for initial load
You can fill out the forms there which they have on-site. It only takes around 15 minutes per application so it’s really no bother.
RFID Processing Stations are at the following areas:
- Skyway office in Bicutan
- Manila Toll Expressway Systems (MaTES) office along SLEX (after Cabuyao exit)
- Petron Capitol 8, Pasig Blvd. Pasig City
I’ll try to update this page as soon as I get more information,
