How to Deactivate a FASTag Account ?

FASTag can be purchased through accredited banks or other channels/platforms. If you already possess a car, you are well aware that the tag is attached to the vehicle and issued in the name of the owner. If you're unsure how to deactivate or close a FASTag account, this article will assist you.

An Introduction

So, what's the best way to deactivate a FASTag account? It's a straightforward method that differs somewhat from one provider to the other. The most expedient method is to call the tag issuer's customer service number and request that the account be closed/deactivated.

However, there are a few more options for cancelling your FASTag account, which we'll go over in detail in the sections below.

Why is it important to deactivate your FASTag account?

If you've sold or transferred ownership of your car, it's critical to close/deactivate your FASTag account. Because toll charges will continue to be deducted from the account associated with the tag, in any of the cases listed above, the account should be deactivated immediately.

Furthermore, if you sell your car, the new owner won't be able to get a new FASTag until you close the account associated with it. Because you can only link one tag to a single car, this is the case.

FASTag Cancellation Process

As previously stated, the FASTag cancellation procedure is simple. All you have to do now is notify your tag issuer of your wish to cancel or deactivate your FASTag. You can also terminate your account online with only a few clicks with some providers. As a result, it is dependent on the tag issuer's protocols. We'll go over the cancellation process for various tag issuers in the sections below.
