# Check Traffic Challan in Mumbai — Free Online Guide 2025
Mumbai's traffic enforcement has gone almost entirely digital. The city has deployed hundreds of speed cameras, AI-based CCTV systems, and automated number plate recognition (ANPR) cameras across the Western Express Highway, Eastern Freeway, and major arterial roads. If you drive in Mumbai regularly, checking your MH-series challan status every few months is smart.
The Only Free Official Method
The official portal is echallan.parivahan.gov.in (central government). Maharashtra also has its own portal at mahatrafficapp.mahait.org for Mumbai Traffic Police. Both are free.

2. Click "Check Challan Status"
