JPJ, post office counter services for driving license, road tax closed during MCO – online renewals only

The transport ministry (MoT) has announced that all counter services for the departments and agencies under it will be fully closed from March 20 till March 31, which is the movement control order (MCO) period.

The organisations involved are the road transport department (JPJ), land public transport agency (APAD), commercial vehicle licensing board (LPKP) Sabah and LPKP Sarawak. This includes JPJ services at all post offices.

According to the MoT, besides taking into consideration the health of the public and its frontline staff, the decision was made after it noticed an uncontrollable crowd at the counters of its agencies. Of course, that is not in line with the MCO, which is to prevent people from crowding.

JPJ, post office counter services for driving license, road tax closed during MCO – online renewals only

With counters closed, the ministry says that the renewal of driver’s license and road tax can only be done online during the MCO period, via the MySikap JPJ portal or MyEG. Those who do not have the public/portal ID to access MySikap JPJ can use MyEG, although the latter only does road tax renewal and not licences.

Those who have renewed their license/road tax online during the MCO period do not need to head to a counter to collect the physical license card or road tax sticker. The MoT says that proof of fee payment is good enough, meaning that you should keep a copy of the receipt to be presented during roadblocks, for instance.

As soon as the MCO is over, one should proceed to collect the physical license/road tax sticker. As for motor insurance, plans can be purchased online from the insurance companies’ portals.

    Ladies & gentlemen, you must understand that why you should ignore Kunta and his dupes.

    I know you guys hoping that the anti proton supporter does not come here to talk busuk that Proton not good & China not good whatsoever, especially claiming that fuel price is so cheap that was the time during PH administration. As most of the time, Kunta always telling lies for the past 22 months as what “Cloth” also said about Kunta. And we also suspect that Kunta always spending his time for disliking his comment about proton, toyota while liking his comments. Found from evidence in (https://paultan.org/2020/03/05/umw-toyota-motor-announces-recall-for-13500-units-of-toyota-lexus-models-potentially-faulty-fuel-pump/). All these is because when kunta always very jealous that proton/toyota sales had taken their sales from honda, he started to talk busuk about proton/toyota. Can tell that his mind always going beserks and panics all of sudden. HIs bloods and thoughts pump-up and tempers set into overdrive which only one troll spend whole 24 hours for nearly 2000 likes/dislikes without doing his works, sleep or eat. Even, Kunta also uses his own dupes like “Insane Determination 100”, “Kerajaan Pintu Belakang”, “newme”, “ASB”, “tikus”, “Denso Japan” and etc. And he always claim that “Oh, his dupes are not related to Kunta”. But in the truth, no one ever believes Kunta, which we know his dupes statements are more similar to Kunta. He always coming from honda supporter/P2 supporter. And he always ignoring other people’s comments for their good statements until now when they always advising Kunta. And that he always never admits that Kunta is the one who put liking/disliking comments, using his own dupes, always claiming that like Angry Voters from john & Cloth from Mario. His attitude always never change.

    Just like what he has been doing recently when posting about updated fuel price recently in (https://paultan.org/2020/03/20/march-2020-week-4-fuel-price-ron-95-under-rm1-50-but-please-dont-rush-out-to-pump-fuel-unnecessarily/). Just after PN government replaced PH government for few weeks ago, he still never learn from their lessons. He dislikes about PN government and likes about PH government by using his own dupes like “Almighty Snack Bar” & “OTAK in Comment Section”, especially for last week fuel price in (https://paultan.org/2020/03/13/march-2020-week-three-fuel-price-petrol-diesel-down/) also uses Kunta dupes like “Songlap Songlap Malaysia”, “Sidek Kamiso”, “Curt Curi Malaysia”, “Haniff Bustaman“, “Razlan Harri“ and etc. At the same time, kunta simply claims that Cloth from Mario. Mario didn’t do anything at all. He didn’t reply for the long time. He always tells the truth most of the time during last year paultan articles especially for john, Angry Voters, Rakyat Malaysia and etc. Unlike Kunta & his dupes including newme, he has been lying for the past 22 months until now.

    So hope you need to understand to all of you. And we would like to agree that we need to ban Kunta and his dupes from continuing posting his comments in paultan so that we can have more freedom from Kunta. Everyone are already very upset about having Kunta from the past 22 months until now. And whenever kunta argues back, just ignore! Cheers!

    • Plea for Kunta to present his case on Mar 24, 2020 at 8:10 pm

      At first, I thought this long written msg is another pleas to rich msian, aka related to MCO announcement, actually its abt a personal grudge against the troll, but why it seems so 50% sad, just wait for Kunta himself to happily come here soon to reply to you bro J..many here probably like to watch that discussion as soon as possible

        Bro. Now Kunta already keeping his silence. He has no words to explain anymore. Because he has no plan to argue back against Mario and john. No matter when kunta argues back, we always ignore kunta. As kunta is always very dishonest to himself and trying to hide his things and always claim that Mario/john is wrong. But the truth is that, everyone said that kunta always wrong. At the end, Kunta will be loser anywhere. So Kunta should look at himself for what he has done for the past 22 months until now.

    “Those who do not have the public/portal ID to access MySikap JPJ”

    Then what’s the point of doing things online?

    What about ehailers who can only renew the roadtax by the counter?…provided they’ve passed puspakom for some?

  • Roadtax renewal is for private cars only, for the period of 6-12 mths. Most logistics companies now suffering coz normally they renew roadtax on mthly basis or max up to not more than 6 mth coz PUSPAKOM inspection.

    JPJ/MYEG should do something really fast to enable commercial vehicles to renew road tax (essential services), otherwise no essential good will be available @ market.

    penutupan kaunter jpj dan puspakom amat terkesan untuk mereka yang memandu ehailing sama ada sepenuh masa ataupun separuh masa kerana urusan pembaharuan cukai jalan memerlukan mereka berurusan di kaunter sahaja. Tiada makluman perlu puspakom diberikan sehingga pemandu telah beratur lama berurusan di kaunter JPJ. Berharap MOT dapat permudahkan urusan pemandu Ehailing. TQVM

  • What about those who doesn’t have access to MySikap, how do they renew their driving license? MySikap requires no. Rujukan pendaftaran (Available only by request via JPJ counter) in order to be allowed to access portal. MYEG doesn’t provide this service.

    • I do agreed with you. If it’s cant be renewed, why must post thru online and give A fake hope! And the writter could’ve done research before post it online.

      exactly. PaulTan, this post of yours may serve as a good reminder about driver license renewal. But it really leaves people like me hanging in limbo. Now that my license has expired because i cannot renew it during MCO even online option which is only through mySIKAP is not possible because we are supposed to get the login ID from JPJ counter (what???) and now i am reading that i will be fined for an expired license. Would you by any chance have any way to clarify this situation for us with JPJ?

  • My car road tax expired 9 Apr 2020. I have managed to renew the car insurance but am unable to renew the road tax at the post office. Can I do it after MCO at the post office? Is there a time frame that I have to renew the road tax? My car insurance is now valid until 9 Apr 2021. Thank you.
