VEP & Smart Tolls – How RFID Works with Malaysia’s MLFF Toll System

What Is MLFF?

MLFF (Multi-Lane Free Flow) is a barrier-free toll system that allows vehicles to:

• Drive through toll plazas at normal speed
• Pay tolls automatically using RFID tags
• Avoid congestion caused by toll booths or SmartTAG lanes

How Does RFID Link with Your VEP?

If you’re driving a Singapore-registered vehicle into Malaysia, you’re required to:

• Register your Vehicle Entry Permit (VEP)
• Install a valid RFID tag linked to your VEP profile
• Top up a Malaysian Touch ‘n Go eWallet (or equivalent)
• Drive through MLFF lanes where toll charges are deducted automatically

What Happens If RFID Fails at an MLFF Lane?

Without a working RFID:

• Your vehicle will trigger an enforcement camera
• Your license plate (linked to your VEP) will be scanned
• A fine or summons may be issued
• Repeat violations could lead to entry restrictions
