Renew car insurance & road tax together online
Need to renew your car insurance and road tax? You can renew both online with BJAK in one flow.
Your car insurance needs to be active before your road tax can be renewed. Once your insurance renewal is processed, your road tax renewal can be submitted for JPJ processing. After it is completed, you can check your digital road tax through the MyJPJ app. Our guide explains how to renew car insurance and road tax together step by step.

Renew road tax online
Renewing your road tax online can be done after your car insurance is active.
With BJAK, the process starts with your car insurance renewal. Once your insurance is active and the required vehicle details are valid, your road tax renewal can be submitted for JPJ processing.

Other types of car insurance cover: e-hailing, EV and more
- E-hailing car insurance
A standard private-car policy may not cover e-hailing. If you drive for Grab, inDrive or Maxim, you may need an e-hailing endorsement or separate cover. Learn more about e-hailing insurance.
- EV car insurance
EVs generally use comprehensive insurance, but check whether your policy covers the battery, charger, charging cable and related risks. Get EV car insurance quotes.
- Car insurance for new and young drivers
Young or less-experienced drivers may have a compulsory excess. Check your policy for age, licence and driver restrictions.
- Mileage-based car insurance
Some insurers offer usage-based cover or discounts if you drive fewer than 10,000 km a year. Check eligibility and mileage limits.
- Car insurance for a second car
Each vehicle usually needs its own policy. A second car typically starts with 0% NCD, unless you qualify to transfer an existing NCD.
- Business and commercial use
Tell your insurer if you use your car for business. Using a private-car policy for undeclared commercial purposes may affect your coverage or claim.
Save up to 55% with your No Claim Discount (NCD)
The No Claim Discount (NCD) reduces your private-car premium for each claim-free year. It is linked to the policyholder and vehicle, and may be transferred to another vehicle under the insurer's rules. PIAM explain the NCD schedule for private cars accumulates as follows:
No claim history
0%
1 year
25%
2 years
30%
3 years
38.33%
4 years
45%
5 years or more
55%
What a car insurance claim really costs
For example, on a RM1,500 premium, a 55% NCD is worth RM825. If a claim resets your NCD, you may pay more in future premiums while rebuilding the discount. For a RM600 dent, compare the repair cost with the potential loss of your NCD before claiming.
Claims that may not affect your NCD
Some claims may not affect your NCD, depending on the policy terms:
- A claim against another driver where you were not at fault and the relevant conditions are met
- A glass-only claim made under a windscreen add-on
- A claim covered by an NCD protection or relief benefit
Checking and transferring your NCD
Check your registration number using the BJAK NCD checker. NCD transfer is subject to the insurer's rules and generally cannot be split between two vehicles or transferred to another owner. See PIAM's guide to the NCD transfer procedure.
How to get cheaper car insurance at renewal
5 things to check before you renew your car insurance
Your renewal quote is not just about the price. Before you renew, check these five things:
Check your NCD
Make sure the NCD shown on your renewal quote matches your current entitlement. Your NCD can make a significant difference to your premium, so check it before comparing quotes.
Review your sum insured
Your car's value may have changed since your last policy. Check whether the sum insured still reflects the value of your car and whether the policy uses market value or agreed value. See our guide to sum insured and market value vs agreed value.
Check your coverage
Think about whether your current coverage still suits your car and how you use it. You may need comprehensive, third-party fire and theft, or third-party cover depending on your circumstances.
Review your add-ons
Check the add-ons you had last year. You may want to keep, remove or add coverage such as:
- Flood and Special Perils
- Windscreen
- All Drivers
- Personal Accident
- Passenger liability
- Towing and roadside assistance
Available add-ons vary by insurer and policy.
Compare the final premium
Do not compare the headline premium alone. Check what is included in each quote, including the sum insured, add-ons, excess and other benefits.
Should you renew with the same insurer? Compare first
You don't have to stay with the same insurer when renewing your car insurance. Your NCD entitlement moves with you, so switching insurers at renewal does not mean losing your NCD.
Instead of comparing price alone, look at the whole package: the premium for similar coverage, sum insured, available add-ons and their prices, as well as the workshop and claims arrangements offered by each insurer.
Is car insurance compulsory in Malaysia?
Yes. Section 90 of the Road Transport Act 1987 makes it an offence to use a vehicle on a public road without insurance that covers death or injury to other people. Third-party insurance is the minimum required cover.
Do I need car insurance to renew my road tax?
Yes. Your car must have an active insurance policy before JPJ can issue or renew its road tax. You can get a car insurance quote and add road tax to the same payment.
Do I need comprehensive insurance?
Usually, yes. Most hire-purchase agreements require comprehensive insurance while you are still paying for the car.
What happens if I drive without car insurance?
You may face a fine, imprisonment or disqualification from driving. You may also have to pay personally for injury or damage caused to other people because you do not have an insurer to cover these costs.
Comprehensive vs third-party car insurance: which do you need?
There are three main types of car insurance in Malaysia: comprehensive, third-party fire and theft (TPFT), and third-party cover. Motor takaful offers similar protection under Shariah-compliant principles. PIAM publishes the industry reference.
Compare Car Insurance Coverage Types
| What is covered? | Comprehensive | Third-party fire & theft | Third party |
|---|---|---|---|
| Death and injury caused to other people | |||
| Property damage caused to other people | |||
| Fire and theft involving your car | |||
| Accidental damage to your car |
Coverage limits, exclusions and extra benefits depend on the insurer and policy. Check the Product Disclosure Sheet before buying.
Motor takaful
Motor Takaful is an alternative to conventional car insurance that follows Shariah principles. It offers the same three main levels of protection:
- Comprehensive
- Third-party fire and theft
- Third-party
The cover, exclusions, excess and No Claim Discount can vary by provider, so compare the policy details before choosing. See the Malaysian Takaful Association to learn more about Motor Takaful.
Which type of car insurance is cheapest?
Third-party insurance is usually the cheapest, but you get less protection than with fire and theft or comprehensive cover. For a car worth RM15,000, comprehensive cover could cost just RM200 to RM400 more a year. Compare the prices before you decide, the extra protection might cost less than you think.
Car insurance add-ons: flood, windscreen & more
Comprehensive insurance covers more risks than other policy types, but it does not cover everything. These are some common exclusions:
Example add-on prices
The examples below are based on a selected case, a RM50,000 sum insured. Product Disclosure Sheets (PDS) from Zurich, Allianz, Tokio Marine and Takaful Malaysia. Prices, benefits and availability vary by insurer, vehicle and policy. Your quote may differ.
Live in a flood-prone area? Add special perils cover
Special perils cover may be worth considering, especially if you live in a flood-prone area. For example, the Zurich Z-Driver PDS gives an example price of RM100 a year for a RM50,000 sum insured. Your price will depend on the insurer, vehicle and policy.
What BJAK customers add most: All Drivers Coverage is in 60.2% of policies, followed by Windscreen Cover (26.2%) and Special Perils Cover for flood, storm and landslide (12.1%). Windscreen Cover averages RM199.82 and Special Perils RM79.60 per policy.2
How much does car insurance cost in Malaysia?
Car insurance premiums vary by vehicle, driver and coverage. Since motor insurance pricing was liberalised on 1 July 2016, insurers can assess risk and set different premiums, so the same car may receive different quotes.
See BNM's Liberalisation of Motor Insurance and the Phased Liberalisation policy document.
What BJAK customers are quoted: across the 10 most-quoted models, average quotes range from RM338 for the Proton Wira to RM995 for the Honda City. A Perodua Myvi averages RM693, a Proton Saga RM585 and a Toyota Vios RM924.4
What sets your car insurance premium
- Sum insured
Your premium depends partly on your car's insured value, which is generally based on its market value. See sum insured and market value vs agreed value.
- Add-ons and charges
Optional add-ons increase the premium, followed by 8% service tax and RM10 stamp duty.
- Risk profile
Your age, claims history, vehicle age, location and vehicle usage can affect the premium.
- Engine capacity
Larger engines generally cost more to insure.
- No Claim Discount (NCD)
You can receive up to 55% off, making this one of the biggest factors you can control.
Car insurance cost: a worked example
How much is road tax? Check your price
Your road tax price depends on factors such as:
- Engine capacity
- Vehicle type
- Region
- Ownership type
For example, road tax rates for private cars in West Malaysia are based on engine capacity, with different rates for saloon and non-saloon vehicles.
You can use the BJAK Road Tax Calculator to check your estimated road tax cost before renewing.
What is digital road tax?
Road tax is now digital for eligible private vehicles, so you do not need to display a physical road tax sticker on your windscreen.
After your road tax renewal is processed, you can view your digital road tax in the MyJPJ app.
If someone else drives your car, MyJPJ also allows you to share the digital road tax with them.
Used car, new car, total loss or NCD transfer? We can still insure you
Some car insurance cases need manual checks, including ownership transfers, new cars without a plate number, total-loss vehicles, NCD transfers and vehicle-class changes.

Car insurance protects you financially against specified losses involving your vehicle and third parties. What is covered depends on whether you choose comprehensive, TPFT or third-party cover.
Yes. At least third-party insurance is required to use a vehicle on public roads in Malaysia, and valid insurance is needed before road tax can be renewed.
In Malaysia, 'first-party' commonly refers to comprehensive car insurance. It can cover accidental damage to your own car as well as third-party injury and property-damage liabilities, subject to the policy terms.
Motor takaful is Shariah-compliant vehicle protection based on participant contributions to a shared fund. Coverage, claims, excess and benefits depend on the takaful certificate and operator.
Motor takaful provides similar types of protection to motor insurance, but the underlying contract and fund structure differ. Contributions, claims, excesses and NCD treatment depend on the certificate and the operator's terms. Compare takaful options on our Insurance & Takaful Partners page.
Motor insurance pricing has been progressively liberalised in Malaysia, so insurers can assess risk and price eligible cover differently. That is why the same car can receive different quotes from different insurers.
There is no single fixed price. Your premium depends on factors such as your car's insured value, NCD, driver and vehicle risk, location, usage, insurer and add-ons. Use our Insurance Calculator for an estimate.
Compare quotes from 16 Insurance & Takaful Partners side by side. Check the premium, coverage, excess, add-ons and benefits before choosing the lowest-priced suitable policy.
Your eligible NCD can usually be carried over when you switch insurers, subject to insurer rules. Check your current entitlement with our NCD Checker.
The compulsory excess on an own-damage claim when the driver is under 21, holds a P or L licence, or is not named on the policy schedule. All-drivers cover removes the unnamed-driver trigger, but not the age or licence ones.
Yes. Comparing car insurance quotes on BJAK is free. BJAK may receive a commission from the insurer you choose; check the Product Disclosure Sheet and final payment details before buying.
Standard comprehensive car insurance usually does not include flood damage automatically. You may need a Special Perils add-on, subject to the insurer's terms and availability.
A glass-only claim under an eligible windscreen add-on usually does not reduce your NCD. Without that add-on, the claim may be treated differently under your policy. Check your NCD and policy terms.
If you use your car for e-hailing, you generally need cover that specifically allows e-hailing or hire-and-reward use. A normal private-car policy may not cover claims made while carrying paying passengers.
It provides nationwide towing with no mileage caps for members. For a full list of roadside privileges, check the VIP Benefits page.
Yes. You can compare and renew your car insurance first, then add road tax to the same transaction where available. Use our Roadtax Calculator to check the road tax amount.
Many insurers allow renewal before your current policy expires, commonly up to about two months in advance. Your new policy start date should follow the current policy's expiry date.
Digital records update on the MyJPJ App within 30 minutes. To check specific fees, use our Roadtax Calculator.
Yes, eligible payment options can include monthly instalments, BNPL and credit-card plans. Available terms depend on the provider. See our Payment Options.
You should not drive without valid insurance. You also cannot renew road tax without active insurance, and you may have to pay claims personally if you cause injury or damage while uninsured.
Contact the BJAK 24/7 VIP Hotline for immediate towing and claims coordination.
Ask the insurer for the reason in writing and use its complaints process first. If the dispute is eligible and remains unresolved, you can escalate it to the Financial Markets Ombudsman Service.
No. Your car insurance needs to be active before your road tax can be renewed. If your insurance has expired, renew it first before proceeding with your road tax renewal.
Road tax prices depend on factors such as your engine capacity, vehicle type, region and ownership type. You can use a road tax calculator to check the estimated price for your vehicle.
Yes. You can renew your road tax online with BJAK. Your insurance must be active before the road tax renewal can be processed.
You can check your digital road tax through the MyJPJ app. Go to Profile → Vehicle, select your vehicle and open the digital road tax.
For eligible private vehicles, road tax is digital and can be viewed through MyJPJ. A physical sticker is not required.
No. You need to renew your car insurance and make sure it is active before your road tax can be renewed.
Road tax renewal may be affected by outstanding summonses or blacklist records. Outstanding offences may need to be settled before renewal can proceed.
This depends on the vehicle's registration and applicable requirements. Company-owned or commercial vehicles may have different road tax renewal requirements.
Yes, as long as the vehicle meets the requirements for renewal and has active insurance. If you have recently bought a used car, make sure the ownership and vehicle details are updated correctly before renewing.
