Legal Guide: Fighting Repeat VEP Offences and Understanding JPJ Fines

Crossing from Singapore into Malaysia without a valid Vehicle Entry Permit (VEP), failing to update details, or ignoring outstanding fines can quickly turn into repeat offences. In 2025, Malaysia’s JPJ (Road Transport Department) has strengthened enforcement, meaning repeated violations can result in heavier fines, border restrictions, and legal complications.

Common VEP Offences That Can Lead to Repeat Violations

  • Entering Malaysia without a valid VEP or RFID tag
  • Using incorrect or outdated vehicle information in the VEP system
  • Failing to pay traffic or VEP-related fines promptly
  • Transferring an RFID tag between vehicles illegally

Understanding JPJ Fines for VEP Offences

  • Fines may increase progressively with each offence
  • Your vehicle can be flagged in the border control system
  • In extreme cases, your entry into Malaysia may be denied until all issues are cleared
