An ETC (Electronic Toll Collection) Card is a payment card used in Japan that allows drivers to pay expressway tolls automatically without stopping at toll booths.
When inserted into a vehicle equipped with an ETC onboard unit, the card enables automatic toll payments when passing through designated ETC lanes.
Benefits of Using an ETC Card
- Convenient Toll Payments: Pass through ETC toll gates without stopping to make manual payments.
- Faster Travel: Reduce waiting times at expressway toll booths.
- Cashless Transactions: Toll charges are recorded electronically.
- Discounts: Certain expressways may offer ETC discounts depending on the route, travel time, and applicable conditions.
Important Notes
- An ETC Card is separate from the vehicle's ETC onboard unit. Having an ETC-equipped vehicle does not necessarily mean an ETC Card is included.
- Expressway toll charges are not included in the vehicle rental fee unless otherwise specified.
- Customers are responsible for all toll charges incurred during their rental period.
- ETC Card availability is subject to the rental vehicle and applicable rental arrangements.
