IIRC, if A and B intended to swop their number plates, both need to pay additional transfer fees.

since this new rule with a nominal transfer fee of $11, am I right to say, both owners just need to pay $11 each to get their number plates swop?

I dun own fellari or lambo, but even save 300 hundreds is a lot to me. considering my level can only buy junk car. anyway, always felt the transfer fees is crap. much like coe and road tax...which fantastic country got road tax then erp...

[Blackaccent]

Could have gotten a set of better rims n tyres.

Yes bro. Still feels very hurting every time I think about it.

Transfer fee to retain car number is cheap if you tansfer to a brand new car, the fees is $100. The fees is ridiculous only when you transfer to a used car.

Too bad the ARF reduce to zero did not happen.

Cause you need to bid a number to replace your exisiting car, so pay around $1200?! ANd then $100 to retain your number?! So total you need to pay is $1300.

Huh? Why must bid new number for existing car? Why can't the existing plate of the targetted car come to my car that i am selling and my target car take the plate of the car i am selling? Eg, say i have an existing toyota with plate number ABC 1234 and i am buying a used Golf with plate number XYZ 5678. So they just need to do a double swap of the Golf taking over my ABC 1234 which i want to retain and my Toyota that i am trading in will take over the XYZ 5678 from the Golf.
