5. Toll road
A toll road is a road, motorway, bridge, tunnel or other route for which users must pay a charge. The toll may apply to all vehicles or only to particular vehicle categories, and the amount can depend on factors such as distance travelled, vehicle type, weight or emissions.
Tolls may be collected at toll booths, electronically or through a vignette or distance-based charging system. Drivers should check the applicable payment rules before using a toll road, especially when travelling in another country.

Which road-charging system should I check in the Philippines?
The Philippines has regulated toll expressways. The Toll Regulatory Board publishes operator and toll announcements; tariffs and electronic-payment arrangements depend on the expressway used.

What should I check before using a charged road in the Philippines?
Check the route, vehicle class and the accepted RFID account or payment arrangement. Ensure the device and account are valid for that operator; do not assume one label or card automatically covers every toll network.

Does the absence of a toll booth prove that a road is free in the Philippines?
The absence of a payment booth is not proof that a charged road is free. A vignette, electronic account, vehicle-registration record or another payment procedure may be used where the actual scheme provides for it. Follow the responsible authority or operator’s instructions for that road.
