What Happens to VEP If Your Car Is Written Off in Malaysia

Accidents are unfortunate, but it’s important to understand the administrative steps involved if the worst happens — especially when driving a Singapore-registered car in Malaysia.

  • Report the Accident: File a report with the Malaysian police and your insurance company.
  • Contact JPJ for VEP Cancellation: Inform the Malaysian Road Transport Department to deactivate your VEP record.
  • Remove the RFID Tag: If possible, remove the tag from the damaged car to prevent misuse.
  • Apply for a New VEP: If you replace the car, you’ll need a new VEP for the new vehicle.
