JOHOR BAHRU:

Effective Nov 15, foreign vehicle owners or drivers, especially those from Singapore, who have not obtained or activated a Vehicle Entry Permit (VEP) will be prohibited from leaving Malaysia until all outstanding fines are cleared, says road transport department (JPJ) director-general Aedy Fadly Ramli.

He stated that the full enforcement will cover both privately owned vehicles and company-owned vehicles that either lack a VEP, have an expired VEP, or remain in pre-registration status.

“Fines will be imposed, and vehicle owners must settle them and complete VEP registration before departing Malaysia. This measure is intended to prevent any complications at the Malaysia-Singapore border,” he said at a press conference after inspecting the VEP special enforcement operation at the Sultan Iskandar Building (BSI) exit here last night.
