If you are planning a monsoon season trip to Ooty, make sure that you also book an e-pass, well in advance. Earlier, only those who were travelling to the hill station within June 30 were expected to have one. Now, the requirement for the same has been extended to September 30. Interestingly, the High Court order regarding the same is in place to collect data on the number of tourists who visit Ooty and Kodaikanal during the off-season.
How to book e-pass?
Other than residents and tourists who enter Ooty via government buses, everyone should mandatorily take e-passes to enter the hill station. You can book it via the e-pass website. Date of entry and exit, purpose of visit, address, number of passengers, vehicle and fuel type are the details passengers should enter on the website. The e-pass will have a QR code, which will be scanned at the entry points of Ooty and Kodaikanal.
