VEP to be released in stages

Mar 17, 2018

The Vehicle Entry Permit (VEP) tags, which will be attached to all foreign-registered vehicles entering Malaysia through the Causeway and Second-Link Expressway, will be released in stages upon completion of ongoing application tests.

Transport Minister Datuk Seri Liow Tiong Lai said the ongoing application test was expected to complete in mid-April.

He said the VEP tag was fitted with Radio-frequency identification (RFID) technology and would be integrating a cashless payment system developed by Touch ‘n Go, the operator of the road charge collection.

“The Vehicle Entry Permit system will prevent foreign vehicles from being cloned and sold in the country.

“It will also allow us to prevent vehicles with outstanding summonses from leaving the country,” he said in a statement.
