SLEX toll fee 2026 calculator

How much is the toll fee in SLEX?

The SLEX toll fee depends on three things: where you enter, where you exit and your vehicle class. SLEX is priced section by section, so a short hop between two nearby toll gates costs far less than a full trip down to Batangas. For a Class 1 car, toll fees on SLEX in 2026 range from ₱6 for the shortest trip to ₱338 for the full run from Buendia to Sto. Tomas. Every rate on this page follows the toll schedule approved by the Toll Regulatory Board (TRB).

SLEX toll rates by section

The South Luzon Expressway is made up of three toll sections. Any trip that crosses from one section to the next simply adds the fares together, which is exactly how the SLEX toll calculator above works it out.

Toll fee from Manila to popular SLEX destinations

Most trips from Metro Manila start at Magallanes. These are the current toll prices to the places drivers ask about most, from the Alabang toll fee for a short trip to the Batangas toll fee for a weekend drive south.

Starting at C-5 instead? The C-5 toll fee to any exit south of Alabang is the same as from Magallanes, because both points sit in the same Skyway at-grade toll zone.

SLEX toll gates and how you pay

Every SLEX exit has a toll gate, also called a toll plaza. The SLEX tollgate fee is the fare between the toll gate where you entered and the one where you leave, so you are only charged for the distance you actually drive.

Cashless payment with Autosweep

SLEX toll plazas are cashless. Each toll gate reads the Autosweep RFID sticker on your windshield or headlamp and deducts the fare from your prepaid balance. SLEX does not accept Easytrip, so drivers who also use NLEX need both stickers. Our SLEX RFID guide explains how to get and load one.

SLEX toll fee for Class 1, 2 and 3

Class 1 covers cars, SUVs, vans and pickups. Class 2 is for buses and two-axle trucks, and Class 3 for large trucks and trailers. As a rule of thumb, Class 2 pays about twice the Class 1 toll and Class 3 about three times, so Alabang to Calamba is ₱137, ₱274 and ₱411 respectively.

SLEX, Skyway, STAR and MCX toll fees

SLEX connects with several other expressways, and many trips use more than one of them.

SLEX–Skyway toll fee

Skyway Stage 1 and 2 share the integrated Skyway–SLEX toll matrix, so the fare from Buendia to Calamba is a single amount: ₱301 for Class 1. To go from SLEX to NLEX, continue on Skyway Stage 3 from Buendia to Balintawak, which adds ₱264 for Class 1. See the Skyway toll fee guide.

SLEX–STAR toll fee

At Sto. Tomas, SLEX continues as STAR Tollway toward Lipa and Batangas City. The STAR fare is charged separately: Sto. Tomas to Lipa is ₱64 and Sto. Tomas to Batangas City is ₱121 for Class 1.

SLEX–MCX toll fee

MCX branches off SLEX in Muntinlupa toward Daang Hari, Cavite. Its fare is part of the same integrated matrix, so Alabang to MCX is ₱46 and Magallanes to MCX is ₱164 for Class 1.

Tips for a smoother SLEX trip

Load your Autosweep with at least the round-trip fare before you leave, since a low balance means the barrier will not open. Check the full SLEX toll matrix if you want to compare exits, and the SLEX exits list to see which toll gate is closest to your destination. Weekends and long holidays bring heavy southbound traffic toward Laguna and Batangas, so leaving early saves time at the toll plazas.
