GUIDE ON HOW TO DEREGISTER AND RE-APPLY VEP TAG FOR SINGAPORE REGISTERED CAR TO
ENTER MALAYSIA

By Hazel July 1, 2024

Starting from October 1st, drivers of Singapore-registered private cars must
obtain a VEP and RFID tag. If you are unable to install the RFID tag by the
deadline, you can still enter Johor after October 1st by presenting the
confirmation slip from your VEP application to Malaysian officers. However, it
is essential to install the RFID tag on your car as soon as possible thereafter.

If you’re planning to drive your  Singapore registered car to Malaysia and need
to apply for the  Vehicle Entry Permit (VEP) tag but encounter issues such as a
second-hand car or ownership transfer problems, here’s a step-by-step guide on
how to resolve it:




STEP 1: EMAIL APPLICATION FOR DEREGISTRATION

Firstly, you need to initiate the process by sending an email to
aduanvep@jpj.gov.my. In your email, clearly state that you are requesting to
deregister your vehicle and VEP tag. Be sure to attach the following documents:

 1. NRIC (National Registration Identity Card) – Clear copy of the owner’s NRIC.
 2. LTA Document – Document from the Land Transport Authority (LTA) confirming
    vehicle details and ownership status.
 3. Transfer of Ownership – If the car is not under your name, provide
    documentation showing the transfer of ownership.
 4. Accounting and Corporate Regulatory Authority (ACRA) – Required if the car
    is registered under a company. Provide relevant documentation from ACRA.
 5. Retain Vehicle Registration Document – If you retain the same car plate
    number after a transfer or ownership change, include this document.


STEP 2: SUBMISSION AND APPROVAL



After submitting your email with the attached documents, wait for confirmation
from JPJ (Jabatan Pengangkutan Jalan Malaysia). They will review your
application and documents. If everything is in order, you will receive an
approval email from them.


STEP 3: RE-APPLY ON THE VEP PORTAL

Once you have received approval for deregistration, proceed to re-apply for the
VEP tag through the official VEP Portal. Ensure all required documents and
information are prepared as per the portal’s guidelines.

Additional Tips:

 * Accuracy and Completeness: Double-check all documents before submission to
   avoid delays or rejections.
 * Timely Submission: Submit your application well in advance of your planned
   travel date to allow for processing time.
 * Follow-up: If you do not receive a response within a reasonable timeframe,
   politely follow up with JPJ via email to inquire about the status of your
   application.

Here are the steps for the VEP registration :




STEP 1: REGISTER ONLINE AT THE OFFICIAL VEP PORTAL

The first step is to register online at the official Malaysia VEP portal on the
Road Transport Department (JPJ) website: https://vep.jpj.gov.my.

Create an Account:
You must create an account to start your VEP application. This account allows
you to check the status of your application and make updates. Use your NRIC (for
Singaporeans) or passport number for foreigners. Remember, this account can’t be
amended or deleted, so choose an email address that you will always have access
to.

Enter Your Details:
Provide the personal details of the car’s registered owner and vehicle
information. If you’re applying for multiple vehicles, they can all be
registered under one account.



Tip: Avoid manually entering your car registration details by uploading a PDF of
your vehicle registration, which can be downloaded from the OneMotoring website.

Important: If you sell your vehicle, remember to deactivate it on your VEP
account. Otherwise, you may still be responsible for any penalties accrued by
the new owner.

After successful registration, you’ll receive a confirmation email.


STEP 2: DOWNLOAD AND SET UP THE TOUCH ‘N GO EWALLET

While waiting for the confirmation email, download the Touch ‘n Go eWallet from
the Apple App Store or Google Play Store.

Why the Touch ‘n Go eWallet?
This eWallet is linked to your VEP-RFID tag, making it easy to pay for road
charges and tolls in Malaysia. You can also use it to reload your Touch ‘n Go
Card, which can be used for road tolls and the mandatory RM20 (approximately
S$5.75) road charge for all foreign-registered  vehicles.



Pro Tip: Be careful when selecting your ID type in the eWallet. For
Singaporeans, choose NRIC as your ID type, and for foreigners, select Passport.
If you choose the wrong ID type, your eWallet and VEP may be mismatched, leading
to delays.

If a mistake is made, you’ll need to create a new eWallet account to correct it.


STEP 3: RECEIVE AND INSTALL YOUR VEP-RFID TAG

Once your registration is approved, proceed with payment and choose how you’d
like to collect your VEP-RFID tag. Payment can be made on the official portal:
https://vepams.jpj.gov.my.

Tag and Collection Fees:

 * Tag Processing Fee: RM10 (approximately S$2.87)
 * Collection Agent Service Fee: RM29.50 (approximately S$8.47)
 * Courier Service Fee: This fee depends on the provider.

Installation Instructions:
Previously, you had to travel to Malaysia to get the tag fitted. Now, you can
install the RFID tag yourself. It can be placed on the left side of your
windscreen or headlamp. Detailed instructions will be provided with the tag.



Once the tag is fitted, log back into your VEP account to acknowledge the tag by
clicking the Acknowledgement button next to your  vehicle number. Don’t forget
to input your RFID serial number for validation.

Driving into Malaysia from Singapore without a VEP after October 1st, 2024, may
lead to:

 * Denial of entry
 * Fines of up to RM2,000 (approximately S$425)
 * Up to 6 months imprisonment

To avoid these consequences, it’s advisable to apply for your VEP well ahead of
time, particularly if you plan to travel frequently between Singapore and
Malaysia.

TRAVEL SHARE

Traveling around the world and staying in hostels is always a fun experience,
but sometimes it’s nice to relax in a large condo-like hotel. A timeshare seems
like a good option because timeshares are typically larger than hotel rooms and
come with a kitchen. Disney timeshares are some of the highest rated and seem to
be heavily discounted on the DVC Resale Market online.
