The Federal Airports Authority of Nigeria has announced the introduction of E-tags, a mandatory payment system for entry into the country’s 24 federal airports.
The sale of E-tags begins today, May 17, as approved by the Federal Executive Council in its recent meeting.
The FAAN made this announcement through its X handle on Friday.
According to FAAN, all users of federal airports, including the President and Vice President, must pay tolls at the gates before gaining access.
Motorists without E-tags can pay cash at the access gates, but defaulters will be denied entry.
The announcement reads, “At Murtala Muhammed International Airport in Lagos, the public can obtain E-tags at the Office of the Head of Department of Commercial Operations, Terminal 1, 5th floor, or by calling 08033713796 or 08023546030.
“At Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport in Abuja, E-tags can be obtained at the HOD Commercial Office at the General Aviation Terminal, or by calling 08034633527 or 08137561615.”
The E-tags can be obtained at designated locations at the Murtala Muhammed International Airport in Lagos and the Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport in Abuja.
