VEP Confirmation Slip vs. RFID Activation: What's the Difference? (Last Updated: March 2026)

Many Singaporean drivers believe that receiving a VEP confirmation slip means they are fully compliant to drive into Malaysia. In 2026, this is incorrect and the misunderstanding can cost you RM300.

What the Confirmation Slip Actually Means

In 2026, the confirmation slip only proves you have applied for a VEP. It does not mean you are compliant to cross the border.

The confirmation slip: Proof that your online VEP application has been received and is being processed.
RFID Activation: The physical RFID tag must be stuck on your car AND activated via the VEPAMS portal with a fitment photo.
Full compliance: Only once the RFID tag is physically installed and digitally activated are you legally permitted to drive into Malaysia without facing the RM300 fine.

How MyMechanic Ensures Full Compliance

Our door-to-door service covers the entire process: from application and physical RFID installation to portal activation and fitment photo submission. We do not consider the job done until your car is 100% compliant.
