Starting October 1, 2025, as per Decree 119/2024/NĐ-CP issued by the Government, all vehicles passing through non-stop toll stations (ETC) nationwide must use a transportation account—a designated account linked to a non-cash payment method such as an e-wallet or VISA card. Failure to comply will result in vehicles being unable to pass through ETC toll stations.
For vehicle owners who have registered a VETC e-wallet and verified their chip-embedded CCCD, VETC will automatically convert the toll account to a transportation account. If you haven’t used an e-wallet or verified your chip-embedded CCCD, follow these steps to upgrade your toll account to a transportation account on the VETC app:
From October 1, 2025, vehicle owners must convert their toll accounts to bank-linked transportation accounts as per Decree 119/2024, or they will be blocked at ETC stations. (Illustrative image)
