At the same time, after the change in FASTag rules, now users will have to give complete information about their vehicle. The vehicle's registration number, chassis number and owner's mobile number will have to be linked to it. At the same time, those who have recently bought a new vehicle, they will be given three months' time. Such users are required to update the registration number on FASTag within 90 days. Apart from this, users will also have to upload a picture of the vehicle. The front part of the vehicle should be visible in the picture.

FASTag users must ensure that their database is not different from the information recorded in the National Vehicle Registry database of India. If there is a difference between the two, users may face difficulties. In such a situation, it will be better for you to verify your database.
