VEP Application for Singapore Cars with Foreign Number Plates

If your car has a foreign number plate but is temporarily registered in Singapore, you'll still need a Vehicle Entry Permit (VEP) to cross into Malaysia legally.

Why You Still Need a VEP

Malaysia’s Road Transport Department (JPJ) requires every foreign-registered vehicle to have a VEP before entering. That includes cars with foreign plates temporarily under Singapore registration.

Skipping the VEP could mean:

  • Long delays at Tuas or Woodlands checkpoint
  • Being turned back at the border
  • Facing unnecessary fines or penalties

In short—having your VEP ready means less stress and more time enjoying your trip.
