FAQs About EZPassRITBA Toll Invoices
1. How do I know if my bill is a standard invoice or a violation?
Standard invoices usually start with the letter “N”, while violation notices typically start with “C”. The letter and wording on the notice will indicate whether it is a regular bill or a violation.
2. Can I pay both invoices and violations at the same website?
Yes. Both standard invoices and violations can be paid on https://www.ezpassritba.com, but you must choose the correct option (invoice vs. violation) and enter the appropriate number (N or C).
3. Do I need an E‑ZPass RI account to pay a toll invoice?
No. You can pay a mailed invoice directly using the invoice number and plate, without creating an account. However, opening an account makes future tolls auto‑deduct and can qualify you for discount plans as a frequent traveler.
4. Can I manage multiple vehicles under one E‑ZPass RI account?
Yes. When you log in at https://www.e-zpassri.com/login/, you can add or update multiple vehicle license plates and manage their toll activity and payments under a single account.
5. Are violation notices payable by mail?
Typically, standard invoices allow mail‑in payment, but violation notices are expected to be paid online or via other approved methods described on the notice. Always follow the specific instructions printed on your document.
6. What happens if I ignore a toll invoice or violation?
Unpaid invoices and violations can lead to additional fees and enforcement actions, and may ultimately affect your vehicle registration status, depending on policies and reciprocity agreements. Paying promptly through the official site helps you avoid penalties.
7. How can I avoid scams when paying my E‑ZPass RI invoice?
Only use the official RITBA/E‑ZPass RI websites and never pay via random links sent by text or email. Suspicious messages can be reported to 7726 (spam reporting) or the FBI’s Internet Crime Complaint Center, and you should contact customer service if you are unsure.
