MYS need to be PR before they can convert to Sin D.L. If that they are PR, they cannot drive MYS car to Sin in the first place. Unless that they are vocation drivers (like egg delivery) which they can drive mys trucks in Singapore (with so many tom/dick/harry approval), Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meganut 2nd Gear February 9, 2012 Share February 9, 2012 (edited) Should be able to drive around with a Msian car. The rule Msian with SG licence are NOT allowed to drive a MSIA REG CAR TO SINGAPORE, same for Singaporeans as well.... So if i drive around should be okay mah... anyway i am a singaporean with singapore licence and i drive in msia with msia car :) Its just like if I am a msian with SG licence, i take my licence and rent car in msia and drive... why cannot? At most if kenah caught and they want kopi money (even though got no wrong) I can tell them that its an emergency, I am rushing to the hospital to see someone now thats why i drive msia car... My Msian friend is a SG PR and his a SG registered OPC Picanto... he kenah stopped by TP in msia before... they ask him how come he msia driving SG plate and holding SG licence, where he get from, according to their HQ its against the law and the fine is $2000 and ban from driving, have to attend court. He told them who is the boss and ask the boss to check, he has Singapore Licence and he owns a Singapore car, not msia car... then they terkan him for 20 mins, cannot get a dime and ask him to fudge off.... damn jialiat Edited February 9, 2012 by Meganut Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nope. You can not use S'pore license to drive M'sian private car without a valid M'sian/International driving license. It is illegal but many do not know about it. But you can use any country driving license such as S'pore license to drive/rent a M'sian cars from car rental company. Versa Versi, a M'sian driving license can not drive a S'porean private car in M'sia/S'pore without S'pore/International driving license unless a rental car registered under the name. When come to insurance claim, it is out due to illegal case. Edited February 9, 2012 by Beachboy7718 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think driving a Malaysian registered vehicle without a Malaysian driving license is not legal regardless a qualified driving license you possess from another country e.g. Singapore unless you have an International Driving Permit to complement your SG driving license. Look at the following links in AA - IDP LIST One sure way of not being hassled and/or hustled by MY Polis. Have a nice day! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ok. Therefore, it is unofficial since there is no officially supporting document or link to certify your claim. Hence, my statement: One sure way of not being hassled and/or hustled by MY Polis because it is all about legality and laws between Malaysia and Singapore are generally similar unless someone can point out that this is officially not so; insofar as the topic is concerned.

Beachboy7718 Clutched February 10, 2012 Share February 10, 2012 I just got a reply from JPJ, they said can.... You may take the risk. I read newspaper 1-2 year to clarify such incident. JPJ officer also tak boleh pakai one. It is common sense, why only SGD driving license can drive M'sia car? How about USA or Thailand? To be honest, any country driving license can not drive any private cars in other country unless a rental car from rental company. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kklim Supercharged February 10, 2012 Share February 10, 2012 http://www.aseansec.org/9874.htm The Agreement on the Recognition of Domestic Driving Licences Issued by ASEAN countries was initialled by the 17th AEM and will subsequently be signed by the ASEAN Foreign Ministers. The Agreement once implemented would enable ASEAN nationals with valid domestic driving licence to drive in any ASEAN country without having to secure local driving licence. The Agreement was drafted essentially to encourage and promote intra-ASEAN tourism. The Agreement once implemented would also see the simultaneous implementation of a r) English Translation for Domestic Drivers' Licences. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
