M-Tag is an electronic toll collection system deployed on the motorways of Pakistan by One Network. [1] It is the main ETC System for Pakistan. It is deployed on every motorway in Pakistan except M-8 motorway. It includes automated and centrally connected electronic toll collection. [2] M-TAG is also used on Lahore Ring Road.
In 2009 M-TAG was implemented by the National Highway Authority of Pakistan for a faster and smoother experiences in motorways. M-Tag used to be as E-Tag until it was discontinued and changed to M-Tag. E-Tag was mainly called as E-Toll. When E-Tag was suspended on M-1, M-Tag was made but was on M-2. Before E-Tag was implemented, all motorways had cash lanes and no ETC lanes. As more motorways were built, this transponder gradually expanded to all operational motorways in Pakistan except M-8 motorway. M-Tag was first implemented in M-2 motorway as E-Tag. It is also implemented on Lahore Ring Road and Gujranwala Expressway.
As of February 2025 [update] , M-Tag is mandatory for vehicles travelling on Motorways of Pakistan. For non M-Tag users, they will face a 50% additional charge. [3]
