News & Reviews:   road tax

Transport Minister Anthony Loke Siew Fook today revealed that starting next year, the Transport Ministry will implement an initiative in which you may have to pay to get a physical driving license. Furthermore, he iterated that the Government will continue with the implementation of digital driving licenses and road tax in Malaysia.

It was only yesterday that JPJ announced that BJAK is not authorised to provide road tax renewal services in Malaysia or impose extra fees, but that didn't keep BJAK from breaking the silence. A few hours ago, the company just gave an update on their status in responding to JPJ. 

Recently, many customers of the online platform BJAK Sdn Bhd (BJAK) complained about additional charges and their road tax renewal not being updated on the Road Transport Department (JPJ) system. Well, JPJ today has addressed the issue via a statement, revealing that BJAK was never authorised by JPJ or the Transport Ministry to provide road tax renewal services.

The Road Transport Department (JPJ) has announced that 2.971 million users have downloaded and registered the MyJPJ app since its introduction on 10 February 2023. This is following the implementation of the Digital Motor Vehicle License and Digital Private Malaysian Driving by the Transport Ministry (MOT).

Starting today, every Malaysian can now renew their road tax and driving license at any Pos Malaysia office. However, you will need to book an internet appointment session first which can be done at the Outlet Finder function on the Pos Malaysia website or app.
