Avoid These Common VEP Tag Mistakes: How Pro Door-to-Door Help Prevents Costly Errors

Avoid the most common VEP RFID tag mistakes. MyMechanic’s door-to-door service ensures your VEP is properly registered and installed without costly errors.

Small Mistakes, Big Problems — Let MyMechanic Help You Get It Right the First Time

Getting your Vehicle Entry Permit (VEP) and RFID tag is essential for driving your Singapore-registered vehicle into Malaysia. But did you know that simple errors during the registration or installation process can lead to delays, tag rejections, or even fines at the border?

At MyMechanic, we’ve seen it all — and that’s why our professional door-to-door VEP tag service is built to prevent these issues before they happen.

5 Common VEP Tag Mistakes Singapore Drivers Make

  1. Incorrect RFID Tag Placement
    Placing the tag in the wrong position on your windscreen may lead to failed scans at toll booths.
    How MyMechanic Helps: Our trained team installs your tag with JPJ-compliant precision so it works every time.
  2. Applying with Incomplete or Wrong Information
    Uploading blurry documents or mismatched car details can result in delayed or rejected VEP applications.
    How MyMechanic Helps: We double-check all your documents and handle the entire online application process for you.
  3. Forgetting to Check VEP Approval Status
    Many drivers miss out on receiving their approval email or don’t know how to track it.
    How MyMechanic Helps: We verify your VEP application status, follow up if needed, and keep you updated at every stage.
  4. Trying to DIY Without Understanding JPJ Guidelines
    Navigating JPJ’s portal, uploading files, or figuring out the tag collection process can be confusing.
    How MyMechanic Helps: We take over the tech work, the paperwork, and even the RFID activation — all at your convenience.
  5. Driving Without a Properly Installed or Activated Tag
    Entering Malaysia without a working tag can result in penalties or being turned back at the border.
    How MyMechanic Helps: Our on-site tag testing and activation ensures your car is ready to cross the Causeway with no issues.
