It's a common point of confusion. Let's clear it up so you get exactly what you need.
If you're a daily or frequent driver to Malaysia, you’ve likely heard about both the Vehicle Entry Permit (VEP) RFID and the Touch ‘n Go (TNG) RFID. Many drivers are confused, wondering if they need both. The short answer is no. Let's break it down.
Think of this as your car's passport. The VEP RFID is a tag issued by the Malaysian Road Transport Department (JPJ). Its primary purpose is to identify your Singapore-registered vehicle as it enters and exits Malaysia.
This is a payment sticker. The TNG RFID tag is sold by Touch 'n Go and is used by Malaysian vehicles for domestic toll payments, parking, and more. It is linked directly to the user's TNG eWallet.
Here is the most important takeaway for Singaporean drivers: The VEP RFID tag issued by JPJ also functions as your Touch 'n Go payment tag.
Worrying about getting the wrong tag is a common stressor we eliminate. When you use MyMechanic's door-to-door VEP service, we ensure you get the one and only tag you need.
