Your VEP and Your Data: A Guide to Privacy in 2025

Your Data is a Big Deal

With Malaysia's new VEP enforcement policies for 2025, it's natural to have questions about your personal data. After all, you're sharing sensitive information, and you want to know that it's being handled with care. The new system is designed to make crossing the border easier, but it also means that more of your data is being collected and used.

At MyMechanic, we believe that you have a right to know how your data is being used. We're here to answer your questions and give you the peace of mind you deserve.

What Information Are You Sharing and Why?

When you apply for a VEP, you'll be asked to provide a range of personal and vehicle information, such as:

• Your name, passport number, and contact information.
• Your car's registration number, chassis number, and engine number.
• Your car's insurance and road tax details.

This information is used by the Malaysian authorities to identify your vehicle, enforce traffic laws, and make sure that all foreign cars on their roads are properly registered and insured.

Protecting Your Privacy

While sharing your data is a necessary part of the VEP process, there are steps you can take to protect your privacy:

Beware of Scammers

Be on the lookout for fake websites or emails that pretend to be from the official VEP portal. Always use the official government website or a trusted service like MyMechanic to manage your VEP.

Keep Your Details Up-to-Date

Make sure that your personal and vehicle information is always current in the VEP system. This will help you avoid any problems at the border and ensure that your data is accurate.
