Renew Digital Road Tax with BJAK

Need to renew your road tax or check whether it is still valid?

With BJAK, you can renew your road tax online for eligible vehicles without having to visit a physical counter. You can also check your vehicle’s digital road tax through the relevant JPJ service, depending on your vehicle type and eligibility.

In this guide, we’ll explain how BJAK’s road tax renewal service works, how to check your digital road tax and what to know before renewing.

What Is Digital Road Tax in Malaysia?

Digital road tax, also known as electronic Lesen Kenderaan Motor (e-LKM), is the digital version of Malaysia’s Motor Vehicle Licence.

Instead of relying solely on a physical road tax document or sticker, eligible vehicle owners can access their digital road tax through the official JPJ digital services, including the MyJPJ app.

Digital road tax makes it easier to check your vehicle’s road tax status and expiry date. However, eligibility and document requirements may differ depending on the vehicle category and ownership type.

How to Check Your Digital Road Tax After Renewal

After renewing your road tax, you can check your e-LKM through MyJPJ if your vehicle is eligible.

Step 1: Open the MyJPJ App

Download the official MyJPJ app from the Google Play Store or Apple App Store. Make sure the application is published by Jabatan Pengangkutan Jalan Malaysia (JPJ).

Step 2: Log In to Your Account

Register or log in using the details required by JPJ. The available registration and login methods may change as the app is updated.

Step 3: Access Your Vehicle or Road Tax Information

Navigate to the relevant vehicle or LKM section in the app. Select your vehicle and check the road tax information displayed.

Step 4: Check the Expiry Date

Review the road tax status and expiry date to make sure your vehicle’s LKM is still valid.

If your updated road tax information is not displayed, check whether the renewal has been processed and whether your vehicle is eligible for digital road tax. You can also refer to the relevant JPJ service for assistance.

What Can You Do with Digital Road Tax?

Digital road tax and JPJ’s online services can make it easier to manage important vehicle information.

Depending on your eligibility and the services available, you may be able to:

• View your digital road tax (e-LKM).
• Check your road tax status and expiry date.
• Access eligible vehicle information.
• Reduce your reliance on physical road tax documents where digital LKM is permitted.

You can also use MyJPJ to access other available JPJ services, including digital driving licence information and selected summons information.

Keep in mind that digital road tax availability depends on your vehicle category and the applicable JPJ requirements. Company-owned and commercial vehicles may have different documentation requirements.

Can You Renew Road Tax Online with BJAK if Your Road Tax Has Expired?

Yes, you may be able to renew your road tax online through BJAK, provided your vehicle meets the applicable requirements.

Before starting the renewal, check the following:

• Your motor insurance or takaful is valid.
• Your vehicle details are correct.
• You have completed any required renewal steps.
• Your vehicle meets the relevant JPJ requirements.

If your road tax has expired, renew it before driving the vehicle on public roads. If the LKM has been expired for an extended period, additional procedures may apply.

You can start by visiting BJAK’s online road tax renewal page.

What If You No Longer Use Your Vehicle?

If you no longer intend to use your vehicle, don’t assume that you can simply leave its road tax expired without considering the applicable requirements.

Depending on your circumstances, you may need to review the relevant JPJ procedures.
