Here you will find a
complete list of M-Tag Registration Centers in Islamabad along with complete
details regarding how to get an MTag registration done at designated centers
for travel on the M2 Motorway since the M-Tag has been made mandatory for travel
on the motorway M2 by the National Highways and Motorway Police (NHMP) from 7
December 2021 on the directives of the Lahore High Court (LHC).
The decision to make
M-Tag registration mandatory on the M2 Motorway has been made in order to
reduce vehicles at the M2 Motorway Toll Plaza and curb not only air pollution
from vehicles but also help commuters avoid long queues while entering the
highway through automatic deduction of Toll Tax using the M-Tag system.
How to register for M-Tag?
The M-Tag
registration facility was free for private vehicles till 31 March, there was an additional 300 free balance in your account if you registered your vehicle
before the date. The facility provides you with rewards such as for every 5000
km of travel you will get 500 rupees of balance. There are various customer
care centers as well as registration desks that have been set up at many toll
plaza booths that are giving out M-Tag. If you want the M-tag now, you will be
charged 300 rupees to get the tag, but for now, the whole amount is deposited in
your “M-Tag account” as credit.
Vehicle owners must
have a valid CNIC, driving license along with their vehicle’s registration when
they come to register for M-Tag. The system has been initially deployed at M2
Lahore-Islamabad Motorway, in the later stage of the project they will expand
it to all motorways in Pakistan as part of CPEC 1-link motorways project. From
now on commercial vehicles will be fined 300 rupees if they enter without
having M-Tag.

What is the meaning of M-Tag
M-TAG refers to the
first generation of Electronic Toll Collection (ETC) system used in the state
of Maryland by the Maryland Transportation Authority (MdTA) from 1999 to 2001.
The request for proposal for the system was issued by the authority in 1995.
... When it came online in 1999, the system was known as M-TAG.
M-Tag will work just
like its predecessor E-Tag but in a much faster way. The vehicle owners will be
given a chip, a Radio-frequency identification (RFID) pre-paid chip, that will
help the booths installed on the toll plazas to scan the vehicles when passing
through the toll plaza. The scanners will then read the chips installed on the
vehicles as they pass through them and your tax will be deducted upon passing
through automatically. The scanner will also have a feature to record your
location of entry and exit point, along with the remaining amount in your RFID chip. Vehicle owners can recharge through the FWO website or app as well
as JazzCash. You can also recharge your account through scratch cards of Rs
200, Rs 500, Rs 1000, Rs 2000, and Rs 3000.

There were dedicated
lanes on the toll booths for the E-tag commutators, and they were only opened
to those who had the E-tag sticker. NADRA was managing the E-tag system,
linking the vehicle and owners’ details through a common database. As M-Tag is
replacing E-tag, FWO says it will be managing it for now. M-Tag is for
commercial vehicles right now; they plan to introduce the facility to all
private owners in the later stage of the project.
