SINAGPORE, June 11 (NNN-BERNAMA) — The Singapore Land Transport Authority (LTA) will automatically extend the Vehicle Entry Permit (VEP) validity period for all Malaysia-registered cars and motorcycles for another three months to Sept 30, 2020.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cThere is no need to apply for this extension,\u201d said LTA in its website today. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Earlier, on March 26, 2020, LTA announced that it would extend the VEP validity period for Malaysia-registered vehicles until June 30, 2020.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In the website, LTA also noted that the VEP fees incurred before March 18, 2020 and after April 14, 2020 will continue to apply.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It advised that motorists who wish to avoid accumulating VEP fees and who are unable to personally drive their vehicles out of Singapore may engage cross-border towing\/transport services to transport their vehicles back to Malaysia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
On March 31, 2020, LTA announced that it will provide a one-off waiver of the VEP fees for all owners of Malaysia-registered cars and motorcycles who have had to stay on in Singapore from March 18 to April 14, 2020 due to Malaysia\u2019s Movement Control Order.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It was in response to feedback from Malaysian workers in Singapore, their employers and unions, it said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Currently, all foreign-registered vehicles are required to pay VEP fees of S$4 per day for motorcycles and S$35 per day for cars, with each VEP valid for 14 days from the date of entry into Singapore.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
VEP fees are not payable between 5 pm and 2 am on weekdays, and on weekends and Singapore Public Holidays; foreign-registered vehicles are also currently granted 10 VEP-free days per year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The authority reminded the motorists to update their Malaysia road tax and vehicle insurance validity dates using LTA\u2019s VEP Digital Service at www.onemotoring.com.sg\/ivep\/insureapp<\/a> for the duration of their stay in Singapore.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
