Autotoll (Electronic Toll Collection System) and HKeToll are two separated systems that will only charge tolls from their labels or toll tags respectively. When HKeToll is implemented, its existing manual toll booths and Autotoll lanes will be decommissioned. Vehicle Owner will need to pay the toll via HKeToll. From the period of switching over to “HKeToll”, every traffic direction of each tunnel will not contain the system of “HKeToll” and “Autotoll” at the same time. Thus, it will not occur the situation of charging double tunnel tolls. Meanwhile, Vehicle Owners can install both Toll Tag of HKeToll and a tag of Autotoll on the windshield of your vehicle simultaneously by keeping them at least 10cm apart.

The payment means are different. Using a Vehicle Tag, the motorists could link a credit card, bank account etc that will have autopay function. The motorist can check the transaction and payment records in the account. On the other hand, the Class Tag can be topped up by cash in convenience store and customer service centers only.

The split toll payment could be arranged in 3 ways.
1) Mobile app: the owners / agents have to create HKeToll account and input the commercial vehicle and driver information in HKeToll account. The driver has to create their own HKeToll driver account. Matching between the commercial vehicle and the driver must be done before the driver starts working and keep connecting throughout the working hours. Tunnel toll will be deducted through the HKeToll driver account. The driver just needs to logout the HKeToll driver account when off duty.
2) Monthly statement: when the owners / agents create HKeToll account and input the commercial vehicle and driver information in HKeToll account, they could check the electronic statement with transaction of each vehicle for splitting toll payment with drivers.
3) Two-piece device: this includes a piece of commercial driver card and the card stand. There is stored value amount in commercial driver card. The driver need to insert the commercial driver card to card stand when starts working, tunnel toll will be deducted from the commercial driver card when passing tunnel accordingly. The driver just needs to take out commercial driver card from card stand when off duty. The fee is applied as two-piece device is an extra option. The commercial driver card and the card stand could be purchased separately. The commercial driver could purchase a commercial driver card for toll payment purpose while the owners / agents could purchase the card stand of each vehicle.

Starting from July 22, 2024, the HKeToll system will consolidate all tolls payable on the same day for HKeToll users using a credit card auto-payment: Settlement of all toll payments will be streamlined from once per transaction to once per day, in which the total fee will be collected from the relevant user in one go on the following day.

The daily consolidated payment arrangement can reduce the number of payment transactions. Users can continue to check their detailed records of using government-tolled tunnels on the HKeToll website or mobile application if necessary.

Under the daily consolidated payment arrangement, the relevant users will receive a notification on the HKeToll mobile application stating that the toll transaction is being processed after using government-tolled tunnels each time. The system will then send a notification on the following day to confirm whether the total fee has been paid successfully.

No preparation is needed. The system will automatically implement the daily consolidated payment arrangement for users using a credit card auto-payment.

Yes. Although the system will default to the consolidated payment mode for users using a credit card auto-payment, users can log onto their HKeToll account and choose to maintain the original individual settlement method. Click here for steps on how to edit auto-payment set up.

The existing individual settlement arrangement for users who currently use bank transfers and designated stored value accounts for auto-payments will remain unchanged.
