Renewing Car Roadtax Without the Grant – Legal & Safe

Many drivers panic when the time for renewing their car roadtax but the car grant is nowhere to be found. In reality, you can still renew it without showing the original grant, as long as your vehicle details are valid in the JPJ system. Let’s go through the correct and legal way to do it.


1. Can You Renew Roadtax Without the Grant?

The answer: Yes.
JPJ and platforms like MyJPJ, MyEG, Pos Malaysia, and Bjak now use a digital system — all vehicle records are stored in JPJ’s central database.
This means you don’t need to show the physical grant; your number plate and owner IC are enough.


2. Required Documents

Even without the grant, you still need to prepare:

  • Vehicle owner’s IC (Identification Card)
  • Vehicle registration number
  • Active insurance policy copy (cover note)
  • Previous roadtax receipt (if available)

Bjak Tip: When you renew insurance on Bjak, the system automatically sends a digital cover note — ready to use instantly for your roadtax renewal.


3. How to Renew Roadtax Without the Grant

Option 1 – Via MyJPJ / JPJ Branch:

  1. Verify your active insurance
  2. Provide IC & number plate
  3. Make payment at the counter or kiosk

Option 2 – Via Bjak (Online):

  1. Visit www.bjak.my
  2. Enter your number plate
  3. Select insurance + roadtax
  4. Pay online
  5. Receive your digital policy & roadtax within minutes

For physical roadtax, you can opt for delivery (around RM10).


4. When You Still Need the Original Grant

You only need the grant if:

  • Transferring vehicle ownership
  • Import vehicle without JPJ record
  • There are technical errors or info changes

If your data is still valid in the JPJ system, there’s no need to worry at all.


5. Avoid Scams & Fake Renewals

When using online platforms, always ensure they are official:

  • JPJ / MyJPJ
  • MyEG
  • Pos Malaysia
  • Bjak (approved by Bank Negara Malaysia)

Avoid random links or social media sellers — many fake “renewal” slips don’t exist in the JPJ system.
