Understanding STAR Tollway Toll Fees

The Southern Tagalog Arterial Road (STAR Tollway) is a 41.9-kilometer closed-system expressway operated by SMC Tollways in South Luzon. As a closed-system expressway, STAR Tollway toll fees are calculated based on the distance between your entry and exit plazas — the farther you travel, the higher the fee.

All STAR Tollway toll rates are regulated and approved by the Toll Regulatory Board (TRB), an agency under the Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH). Toll fees are collected cashless via the Autosweep RFID system. Three vehicle classes apply: Class 1 (cars, SUVs, vans) pays the base rate, Class 2 (buses, light trucks) pays approximately 2.28x, and Class 3 (large trucks, trailers) pays approximately 3x the Class 1 rate.

STAR Tollway connects to SLEX at Calamba. For trips spanning multiple expressways, use the toll calculator to compute the combined toll fee across all segments.
