KUALA LUMPUR: Singapore-registered vehicle owners who fail to register or activate their Vehicle Entry Permit (VEP) by July 1 will be fined and must settle the penalty before leaving Malaysia.
The Transport Ministry said today that full enforcement of the VEP requirement will begin on July 1, following a phased rollout that started in October last year.
The rule applies to all Singapore-registered vehicles entering Malaysia.
"To maintain road safety, the Malaysian government will proceed with full enforcement of the VEP requirement starting July 1 2025.

"From this date, summonses will be issued to foreign vehicle owners who have not registered or activated their VEP," the ministry said in a statement.
During the first phase of enforcement, authorities inspected 52,012 Singaporean vehicles and issued 2,245 reminder notices — about 4.32 per cent — to those without VEP registration.
As of June 2, only 36,511 out of 194,507 registered foreign private vehicles had activated their RFID tags for the permit.
The Road Transport Department (RTD), through the ministry, urged all foreign vehicle owners to register, install, and activate their RFID-VEP tags as soon as possible to avoid delays or penalties when entering or leaving Malaysia.
