SG Car Inspection After Major Repair in Malaysia: What You Need to Know | MyMechanic
When Does the LTA Need to See Your Car After a Repair?
Not every single repair means you need an LTA inspection. It's usually required for the bigger stuff:
Big Accident Damage: If your car was in a really serious collision and needed extensive work on its chassis, structure, or safety systems. We're talking major stuff here!
Rebuilt Total Loss Cars: If your car was previously declared a total loss by your insurer and then rebuilt. They want to make sure it's safe to be on the road again.
Major Modifications: If you've made some big changes to your car's structure, engine, or other super important parts. They need to check it out!
The Process: Getting Your Car Inspected (Back in SG!)
If an inspection is needed, it absolutely has to be done at an authorized inspection center in Singapore. No shortcuts here!
Bring It Home: Your car needs to be physically present at an LTA-authorized inspection center (like VICOM or STA). So, yes, it has to come back to Singapore.
Paperwork Time: You'll need all your repair invoices, any accident reports (if that applies), and your car's registration documents. Keep everything organized!
Pre-Inspection Check: It's a super smart idea to have your Malaysian workshop do a thorough check before you even attempt the LTA inspection. Make sure all your lights, brakes, and safety features are working perfectly. You want to pass on the first try!
