The first expressway that links the capital city of Phnom Penh to Sihanoukville province has finally opened in October 2022. Stretching 187.05 kilometers, the PPSHV Expressway is invested by the China Road and Bridge Corporation (CRBC) and operated by Cambodian PPSHV Expressway Co., Ltd. Canadia Bank has collaborated with PPSHV Expressway Co., Ltd to provide customers with a new convenient payment method via Electronic Toll Collection (ETC) when they use the PPSHV Expressway. Customers can use the ETC lane by equipping their vehicles with Onboard Unit (OBU) devices. At the ETC lane, the toll fees are automatically deducted, thus avoid queuing at the toll gates and enjoy non-stop traveling.
What is ETC and its benefits?
Electronic toll collection (ETC) is a wireless system that automatically collects the usage fee or toll charged to vehicles using the toll expressway. It is a faster alternative than paying at regular toll booths, where drivers have to stop to pay with cash. With the ETC system feature, the vehicles will be equipped with the Onboard Unit (OBU) device set. The wireless system detects the OBU device, deducts the payment automatically, and allows drivers to pass through without stopping.
Key benefits of having an OBU device in your vehicle:
Allow non-stop pass through the toll gates
Avoid long queue toll gates
Quick installation and activation
Automatic and hassle-free payment when using the ETC lane
Easy to top up, check balance, and transaction history via Canadia Bank App
How does it works?
With the Onboard Unit (OBU) readily installed on the vehicle windshield, the vehicle can drive through the ETC lane. The OBU device communicates with an OBU detector equipped at the toll gates to identify registered vehicle information and payment will be automatically deducted from the customer's account linked to the OBU.
Requirement for applying the OBU Device
Original NID / Passport
Original Vehicle ID or Copied of Vehicle ID or Certificate of Vehicle Technical Inspection
Bring your car intended for OBU device installation

FAQs:
What is Electronic Toll Collection (ETC)?
Electronic toll collection (ETC) is an automatic toll collection system allowing wireless communication between vehicles and toll stations for non-stop toll collection. As you drive into the Toll Gate, maintain a speed below 20 kilometers per hour as you pass the ETC lane. You can enter after the traffic light turns green and the barrier is lifted. Since the toll fee will be deducted automatically, you may exit the PPSHV Expressway once the barrier is lifted.
What is an Onboard Unit Device (OBU)?
OBU refers to the transponder equipment, including a reader device and an E-Pass Card. The OBU device is required to drive through the ETC lane, and it is installed in the vehicle’s windshield and activated by the branch staff before usage. The benefits of using OBU allow drivers to use the ETC lane, and the toll fees are automatically deducted, thus avoiding queuing at the toll gates and enjoying non-stop traveling.
What is the difference between ETC Lane and MTC Lane?
The Electronic Toll Collection (ETC) lane allows drivers to automatically drive through and pay toll fees at the toll gate without stopping the car, while the Manual Toll Collection lane requires drivers to stop the car to pay the tolls by cash or by other cashless payment methods such as QR payment and bank card payment.
