Ms Hany Soh asked the Minister for Transport with regard to Malaysia’s Road Transport Department’s (JPJ) statement on 27 September 2024 that Singapore private vehicle owners will be issued a warning for not having obtained a Vehicle Entry Permit before leaving Malaysia from 1 October 2024, whether the Ministry has engaged the Malaysian authorities to ensure Singapore’s private vehicle owners do not get unduly penalised for travelling into Malaysia.
Reply by Minister for Transport Chee Hong Tat:
1. The Malaysia Vehicle Entry Permit is a requirement which falls under the jurisdiction of the Malaysian Road Transport Department.
