Stuck Overseas but Need a VEP? You Can Still Get It Done.

How to Handle Your VEP Application from Miles Away

Life is full of surprises, and sometimes you find yourself overseas when you realize you need a Vehicle Entry Permit (VEP) for your Singapore car. Maybe you're on a long work trip or studying abroad and planning a trip back. The good news is that you *can* get the ball rolling from wherever you are. The first part of the application is all online. But, there are a few key things you can't do through a screen.

The Easy Part: What You Can Do Online

A big piece of the VEP puzzle is handled on the official Malaysian VEP website. From any laptop or phone, you can:

• Create Your Account: Get yourself set up in the VEP system.
• Enter Your Car's Info: Fill out all the details about your Singapore-registered vehicle.
• Upload Your Docs: You'll need to upload clear copies of your vehicle registration, your car insurance (make sure it covers Malaysia!), and your passport.
• Pay the Fee: You can pay for the VEP registration online.

The Not-So-Remote Part: The Final Step

Our Top Tips for Applying from Abroad

If you're managing your VEP application from another country, here's what we recommend:

• Digitize Your Documents: Before you even pack your bags, take clear photos or scans of all your important car documents. Save them somewhere safe online.
• Use Safe Wi-Fi: When you're filling out the application, make sure you're on a secure and private internet connection.
• Plan the RFID Pickup: Think about who can collect the tag for you and when. Coordinate the logistics well in advance.
• Check for Updates: Keep an eye on your email and the VEP portal so you know how your application is progressing.
