How to Suspend Your VEP Temporarily Without Cancelling It

Why Suspend Instead of Cancel?

• Preserve Your Registration Data: Your vehicle, owner, and RFID details stay stored in JPJ’s system.
• Avoid Re-application Delays: Full VEP registration can take weeks; suspension lets you skip that process.
• No Need to Reinstall RFID: Cancelling may require replacing your RFID tag; suspension usually doesn’t.
• Ideal for Long Absences: Perfect for seasonal residents, long overseas work assignments, or vehicles stored for months.

When Suspension is a Good Option

• You’re relocating abroad temporarily.
• Your car will be stored in Singapore or another country.
• You’re avoiding travel during peak border congestion or emergencies.
• You want to pause road charge deductions while not using the car in Malaysia.

How to Temporarily Suspend Your VEP

• Check Suspension Eligibility: Not all vehicles or situations qualify; MyMechanic can confirm with JPJ.
• Prepare Your Documents: Have your VEP number, vehicle registration, and proof of insurance ready.
• Submit Suspension Request: This is usually done via the official VEP portal or with direct assistance.
• Get Confirmation: Ensure you receive a suspension approval notice for your records.
• Reactivation: When ready to travel again, submit a reactivation request.
