Invoices

When an unpaid toll isn’t paid online, the Illinois Tollway will mail the customer a series of invoices providing multiple opportunities to address unpaid tolls and avoid entering the violation process. Invoices will be sent via U.S. Mail and will include an invoicing fee for each unpaid toll.

 

If you’ve received an invoice, click above to enter the payment portal to quickly and easily pay the unpaid tolls online using the assigned invoice number. Customers are able to do the following:

  • Pay any invoice. Quickly and easily pay any invoices associated with your license plate through the easy-to-use payment portal.
  • Dispute a license plate image. Mistakes happen. At times, due to the multitude of license plate types in Illinois, images are misidentified. If you believe this is the case, you may dispute the image of your plate after entering your invoice number.
  • Dispute an unpaid toll. As a customer, you have the right to dispute your charges by filling out a sworn Affidavit of Non-Liability and providing documentation as to the nature of the dispute.

Note, not being aware that you were on a tolled facility, not intending to miss initial payment, and not being the operator of the vehicle are not grounds to dispute an unpaid toll. Also, the Illinois Tollway does not accept payment for unpaid tolls on non-Illinois Tollway toll roads or other tolling systems such as the Chicago Skyway, the Indiana Toll Road and E-ZPass systems.

 

Example of a First Notice Invoice For unpaid Tolls

This image shows a sample Illinois Tollway First Notice Invoice for Unpaid Tolls. The invoice total amount due is $13.10, with a payment due date of 11/29/2025. The initial invoice date is 10/30/2025. The account statement section includes fields for Invoice Number, Vehicle License Plate, Initial Invoice Date, and Payment Due Date, with personal details redacted.

The right side of the invoice lists easy payment options: Pay Online by scanning a QR code or visiting illinoistollway.com/invoices; download the Illinois Tollway App available on the App Store and Google Play; or pay with Cash in person at a nearby location. A highlighted box promotes I-PASS, encouraging customers to open or update an account at illinoistollway.com, and Pay by Plate, which allows paying tolls without fees.

The bottom portion of the invoice is a detachable payment coupon separated by a cut line. It instructs the customer to detach and return the coupon with payment, and warns not to send cash or credit card information. The coupon is made out to Illinois Tollway, P.O. Box 1412, Downers Grove, IL 60515-1412, and includes a table with columns for Invoice Number, License Plate, Issue Date, Reissue Date, Due Date, and Total Amount Due of $13.10, payable by check or money order to the Illinois Tollway.
