To get a VEP, drivers must register online to secure an appointment for a special Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) tag to be installed on their vehicle at a designated spot in Johor Bahru.

There will be a one-off registration fee of RM10 (~S$3.28) and each VEP will be valid for five years. One good tip – do remember to have hard copies printout of the required supporting documents else there will be additional service fee for them to print out at the collection centres.

Malaysia will also be rolling out a second phase of VEP RFID installations for vehicles entering Malaysia from Thailand. A planned third phase is for vehicles entering Malaysia from Brunei and Indonesia.
