Overview
- CAPUFE has converted most federal toll booths to cashless lanes and will deactivate IAVE devices bearing the ‘009’ prefix starting August 2025 to prepare for a mandatory tag requirement in January 2026.
- Drivers must select among three interoperable providers—CAPUFE’s IAVE, private Televía and national PASE—each offering different highway and parking coverage footprints.
- Tag costs range from MXN 80 for basic IAVE units to MXN 750 for premium PASE variants, with Televía providing a complimentary Ecotag for users who set up automatic reloads.
- All providers support online and convenience-store top-ups, while Televía distinguishes itself with an app-based auto-reload function and more robust customer-service channels.
- With remaining cash lanes dwindling, users are advised to replace expiring devices and match tag choice to their most frequented routes to prevent payment delays or denied access.
