Avoid fines of up to $1,000 by paying all fees and charges before leaving Singapore and by using the Autopass Card for your vehicle. Do not insert a NETS CashCard or local CEPAS card into the card reader at the immigration booth.
Remember to top up your Autopass Card in other parts of Singapore in advance, as there are no top-up machines at the checkpoints.
Your Autopass Card can be topped up to a maximum of $500. If you need to make payment of more than $500, you will need to make payment at LTA's VEP/Toll Offices at Tuas or Woodlands Checkpoints via cash (in Singapore dollars), credit card, or debit card. You can do this as you are driving out of Singapore. Bring your Autopass Card so that we can update the trip records.
At the immigration booth, insert your Autopass Card into the card reader to pay the fees for your vehicle.
