In addition to a driver&#8217;s licence, a road tax is one of the documents that all vehicle owners must possess to operate their vehicles on public roads legally. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But to this day, we still hear news about people driving without a valid road tax and getting fined. This act is not only irresponsible, but it can potentially be harmful, especially when a mishap strikes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div id=\"ez-toc-container\" class=\"ez-toc-v2_0_50 counter-hierarchy ez-toc-counter ez-toc-grey ez-toc-container-direction\">\n<div class=\"ez-toc-title-container\">\n<p class=\"ez-toc-title\">Contents =<\/p>\n<span class=\"ez-toc-title-toggle\"><a href=\"#\" class=\"ez-toc-pull-right ez-toc-btn ez-toc-btn-xs ez-toc-btn-default ez-toc-toggle\" aria-label=\"Toggle Table of Content\" role=\"button\"><label for=\"item-69e0b136017e2\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><span style=\"display: flex;align-items: center;width: 35px;height: 30px;justify-content: center;direction:ltr;\"><svg style=\"fill: #999999;color:#999999\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" class=\"list-377408\" width=\"20px\" height=\"20px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\"><path d=\"M6 6H4v2h2V6zm14 0H8v2h12V6zM4 11h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2zM4 16h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2z\" fill=\"currentColor\"><\/path><\/svg><svg style=\"fill: #999999;color:#999999\" class=\"arrow-unsorted-368013\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"10px\" height=\"10px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" version=\"1.2\" baseProfile=\"tiny\"><path d=\"M18.2 9.3l-6.2-6.3-6.2 6.3c-.2.2-.3.4-.3.7s.1.5.3.7c.2.2.4.3.7.3h11c.3 0 .5-.1.7-.3.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7zM5.8 14.7l6.2 6.3 6.2-6.3c.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7c-.2-.2-.4-.3-.7-.3h-11c-.3 0-.5.1-.7.3-.2.2-.3.5-.3.7s.1.5.3.7z\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/label><input  type=\"checkbox\" id=\"item-69e0b136017e2\"><\/a><\/span><\/div>\n<nav><ul class='ez-toc-list ez-toc-list-level-1 ' ><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-1\" href=\"https:\/\/bjak.my\/blog\/roadtax-en\/car-road-tax\/#Why_do_people_refuse_to_renew_roadtax\" title=\"Why do people refuse to renew roadtax?\">Why do people refuse to renew roadtax?<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-2\" href=\"https:\/\/bjak.my\/blog\/roadtax-en\/car-road-tax\/#Renewing_a_road_tax_that_has_expired_over_3_years\" title=\"Renewing a road tax that has expired over 3 years\">Renewing a road tax that has expired over 3 years<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-3\" href=\"https:\/\/bjak.my\/blog\/roadtax-en\/car-road-tax\/#Renew_road_tax_on_time\" title=\"Renew road tax on time\">Renew road tax on time<\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/nav><\/div>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Why_do_people_refuse_to_renew_roadtax\"><\/span>Why do people refuse to renew roadtax?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>While most vehicle owners in Malaysia renew road tax on time, some neglect or refuse to do so because they think of it as a minor offence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Some common reasons people are reluctant to renew road tax could be because the road tax is expensive and the vehicle is rarely used. Others may skip renewals, possibly due to a lot of outstanding fines that have yet to be cleared.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are also cases where the road tax has expired for a long time, and the owner is reluctant to go through a Puspakom inspection to get it renewed. Whatever the case, driving a vehicle without a valid road tax should not become a habit for anyone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Renewing_a_road_tax_that_has_expired_over_3_years\"><\/span>Renewing a road tax that has expired over 3 years<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Renewing a road tax that has expired for over 3 years will be tedious. This is because vehicle owners need to go through additional procedures to get them reactivated. The processes involved in renewing a road tax, which has long been inactive, are explained below:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol><li><strong>Undergo a Puspakom inspection<\/strong><\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>If your vehicle&#8217;s road tax has expired for more than 36 months, it must undergo a Puspakom inspection and pass several tests. Your vehicle must be in good condition to avoid problems at the inspection centre. Ensuring its good condition makes the approval process quicker. Before you go, check the vehicle&#8217;s headlights, tyres, brakes and other important parts, which Puspakom officials will test.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>2. Get a temporary travel permit<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Since your road tax has expired, you need a temporary travel permit from the Road Transport Department (JPJ) before booking a Puspakom inspection. You can visit any nearby JPJ branch to request a temporary travel permit. Fill out the JPJ K12 form, which can be downloaded from JPJ&#8217;s official website. Along with the K12 form, bring the following documents to apply for a temporary travel permit:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Vehicle registration document<\/li><li>MyKad<\/li><li>Driving licence<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>3.

These tests are conducted to ensure the vehicle&#8217;s safety is not compromised and complies with the regulations set by the authorities. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You will receive an inspection certificate on the same day if your vehicle successfully passes all the required tests. After receiving the certificate, remember to renew the vehicle road tax within 30 days.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On the day of the Puspakom inspection, please bring the following documents to aid the process: <\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Vehicle registration document<\/li><li>Owner&#8217;s identification card<\/li><li>Driving licence<\/li><li>Temporary travel permit<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>4. Settle outstanding fines<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Before renewing an expired road tax, a vehicle owner must settle all outstanding fines from relevant authorities and ensure their name is not blacklisted. As these fines will be displayed in the database system of the Road Transport Department (JPJ) and the Royal Malaysia Police (PDRM), clearing them before proceeding with the renewal process is crucial.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>5. Renew insurance &amp; roadtax<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Once the Puspakom inspection and outstanding fines are settled, the road tax and <a href=\"https:\/\/bjak.my\/en\">vehicle insurance<\/a> can be renewed as usual. It is up to the owners to decide the mode of the renewal process. It can be done online or offline. If you have budget constraints, online platforms like Bjak can be helpful as they offer instalment payment options for insurance renewal. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Renew_road_tax_on_time\"><\/span>Renew road tax on time<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>A road tax is an important document that no one should ever overlook.
