bro, u need to bring the LTA letter to JPJ stating tat u want to convert ur licence.With this JPJ letter only u will be able to convert ur MSian licence to SG one.

[Stivo]

if you are here for more than 3 months you will need to convert.. but there are heaps of people not converting them :)

[Stivo]

reason for it is due to language.. applies to taiwan and hk..they would need to re take again here :)

 

so we are bless that our license are worth a little more :)

[Stivo]

different states have different laws...

[Huat138]

I think Victoria, NSW, SA and WA are having the same rules. Not too sure about NT though. A person does not need to convert his/her overseas driving licence if he/she does not hold a permenant visa in Australia and the overseas driving licence is in English.

Anyway, you only need to pay one time charge of $50 for SGP license and it is valid for life thereafter, its a very good deal for Malaysian.

 

Given the hostilities that flare up from time to time, it's possible that JPJ barred Malaysians holding Singapore license from driving Malaysian cars. Then they'll claim it's a privilege, not a right.

 

And Blackyv, it's not true that LTA wants your MY license terminated. I've heard from friends that they got an alternative letter. You don't want the conversion letter, but a letter to certify you're free from accident; it's used for renting cars. From what I understand, the JB branch will not issue this letter.

reviving a old topic:

 

How about a Malaysian who have converted to SG Driving Licence, and went back to live/drive in m'sia with a SG Licence?

 

Don't sounds right... but anyone with such experience?

 

SG Licence: No expiry

MY Licence: have to renew every 5 years... *sian*

 

Or have anyone try converting back to m'sia drv licence after yours have been revoked (after converting to SG Licence)?

If I'm not wrong Singaporeans are not allowed to drive foreign-registered cars within Singapore.

 

You can drive a Malaysian car within Malaysia itself on your licence.

Anyone noticed that their government departments are called Jabatan - 吃饱等。some kind of sick joke?

[Chewbacca]

Also, now that I'm using laptop instead of phone....

 

Yes, Malaysia government is a f--king joke.

 

They really do seem to have something against Malaysian working in Singapore.

 

They seem to think that they're 'cheating the system' or some crap. They think that they earn 2.4 times more and get to come back to Msia and spent on cheap fuel and cheap groceries.

 

They don't think that these Malaysians are only in Singapore because of the retarded and unfair education system, severely corrupted business environement, bureaucratic and Ali-Baba arrangements. They think that it's some sort of easy way out.

 

They don't think about the money these Malaysians tend to bring back to M'sia, don't think about how much they actually spend in Malaysia.

 

They're a bunch of retards. But then again, we all know about that already, don't we?

I believe bro Chewbacca is referring to MY side rules. On SG side, no Singaporean is allowed to drive a non SG registered vehicle.

[Junesh1983]

When conversion LTA issue letter u produce in JB they give you another letter and may or may not terminate your license ( some kena cut right away, some disabled in system, some still can renew). When you surrender sg license, they will terminate and give a letter for you to get MY license back.

 

If you have SG license, you can drive SG car MY car. If you have SG license and caught producing MY license, you can be fined (if found) as it is considered illegal you having a terminated license.
