Headed to Florida with an out‑of‑state transponder? Here’s the 2025 answer: E‑ZPass works statewide in Florida. Below we explain where your tag is accepted, how SunPass PRO and Uni compare, and the smartest way to use them in a rental car.
Does my E‑ZPass work in Florida?
Yes—Florida toll roads, including the Turnpike and express lanes, now read E‑ZPass. You’ll pay the electronic rate, not a mailed invoice. Important: use only one transponder at a time to avoid duplicate charges.
SunPass PRO vs. SunPass (sticker) vs. Uni
- SunPass PRO: Portable device that works in Florida and all E‑ZPass states—ideal for multi‑state trips.
- SunPass Mini (sticker): Budget‑friendly but designed for Florida and a handful of partner states; it permanently adheres to the windshield, so it’s a poor fit for rentals.
- Uni by E‑PASS: A portable tag from Central Florida Expressway that also works where E‑ZPass is accepted and on Florida express lanes.
Best practice for rental cars
- Bring a portable tag. Use SunPass PRO, Uni, or your home E‑ZPass. Avoid stickers.
- Close the rental’s toll box. Many cars have a built‑in tag in a flip‑up holder. Keep it closed so only your device reads.
- Mind the license plate. If you’re not using a transponder, add the rental’s plate to your account with start/end dates to prevent mailed invoices.

Quick troubleshooting
- Double charge? Remove extra tags and file a dispute with the agency that billed you.
- Tag didn’t read? Check mounting instructions and make sure the rental’s holder stayed closed.
- Multi‑city trip? SunPass PRO and Uni cover Florida plus E‑ZPass states—handy if you’ll continue to the Northeast.
