Argentina Sets December 2026 Deadline for Automated, Cashless Tolling on Concessioned National Routes

The measure takes effect today, assigning the road agency a flexible rollout that prioritizes cashless lanes via TelePASE.

Overview

  • Decree 733/2025 modifies Article 20 of Decree 196/2025 and resets the schedule for automatic toll collection on national routes.
  • The National Roads Directorate must set a calendar to ensure channelized automatic lanes and/or barrierless free-flow systems are operating by December 31, 2026.
  • The decree authorizes deadline adjustments for specific road segments or toll stations when local conditions justify changes.
  • The transition mandates remote payment, promotes TelePASE as the core method, and removes direct cash use and on-site employee interactions.
  • The rule entered into force upon its October 14 publication in the Official Gazette and is signed by President Javier Milei, Guillermo Francos and Mariano Cúneo Libarona.
