To implement non-stop toll collection, Vietnam Airports Corporation (ACV) has coordinated with a digital technology unit to conduct a survey, develop a plan to install equipment, and connect the non-cash and automatic non-stop toll collection system at Tan Son Nhat International Airport and Noi Bai International Airport. In addition to the airports: Tan Son Nhat, Noi Bai, ACV and Digital Technology Joint Stock Company (HITD) have signed a contract to supply equipment for the ETC system for entry/exit, stop/parking services at 3 other international airports, including: Da Nang , Phu Bai (Thua Thien Hue), Cat Bi (Hai Phong).

According to Decree No. 05/2021/ND-CP, business services on internal airport traffic routes are considered non-aviation services. In particular, the application of non-stop electronic toll collection is a method of toll collection that does not change the type and price of services. The application of non-stop electronic toll collection is suitable for the needs of internal airport traffic management, in compliance with current regulations. The actual implementation of the ETC pilot at Noi Bai International Airport shows that the system operates stably, the rate of successful payment at the ETC lane accounts for the majority, ensuring that vehicles circulate and exit quickly and smoothly, creating favorable conditions for passengers.

During the initial pilot period, Noi Bai International Airport reserved 1 lane (exit lane 2) of the car parking service collection station of the Domestic Terminal (T1) to exploit non-stop toll collection for vehicles with ETC tags. Accordingly, when vehicles travel on the overpass from Terminal T1 down to exit the parking area, there will be 3 exit lanes, of which exit lane 2 (far left) is the lane reserved for ETC toll collection. The remaining two lanes are for all types of vehicles, with the form of service fee collection in cash. All vehicles entering lane 2 will be charged and automatically deducted from the ETC account for passengers with a valid non-stop toll collection card and enough money to pay. In case the ETC account does not have enough balance to pay the fee, passengers can pay by cash or bank card.

During the pilot phase, Noi Bai International Airport recommends that vehicle owners pay attention to driving in the correct traffic lane. Vehicle owners who already have an ETC account used on national highways and expressways can travel through exit lane 2 at Noi Bai airport without having to stick an additional card or incur additional procedures, because these systems are synchronously integrated. The fee collected through the ETC system remains the same as current, without incurring any additional costs. After the pilot trial period of ETC fee collection, Noi Bai International Airport will calculate and report to ACV to increase the number of non-stop toll lanes according to the roadmap approved by the competent authorities.
