Wuga98 Neutral Newbie May 27, 2010 Share May 27, 2010 I have a car that is coming to 10 years and my counsin in JB like to have it. It is possible for me to de-registered this car when it is close to 10 years and export this to JB for him to register it there? I have kept the car very well and he knows it has been taken care off thus he would like to take over from me. As i have no idea if this is possible or not but i just told him that i would check. Anyone can help or know companies that does these thing legally (export to malaysia)? ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ichibawa 5th Gear May 27, 2010 Share May 27, 2010 To import a car into Malaysia... legally.... you need something that called an AP. And this AP would easily cost around RM50K. So factor in all the taxes and levies that you need to pay, I think its better off your cousin get another car in Malaysia which would be cheaper by the time all documentation is done.

Kangadrool Supersonic May 27, 2010 Share May 27, 2010 (edited) Convert to OPC (save road tax and lower insurance), retain registry in Singapore, but keep car in Malaysia. Can??? Think there are Singaporeans with houses in MY who do so. Since lao pok kah, just get 3rd party insurance enough liao. Can drive in and out SG without restrictions.

Wuga98 Neutral Newbie May 27, 2010 Author Share May 27, 2010 Thanks for the explanation, never heard of this AP thing and it is so X meh. I have seen quite a few malaysia reg car with vicom sticker, how did it end up there? with AP. These AP fixed price for all cars? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghostrider 3rd Gear May 27, 2010 Share May 27, 2010 AP is Approve Permit. Its not fix...but its rare...(aka hard for the authority to give it). Last time only selected importer get the AP only....its sort of their way to control competition. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
shrjun 5th Gear November 30, 2016 Share November 30, 2016 TIA. Have a 2015 Jan registered BMW 116i ( F20 ) which I'm considering taking to NZ if plans work out. 1. Is it a financially sound decision ? have an emotional attachment for various reasons lol. 2. Are there companies who can help me with it ? I can only find this in my limited search http://www.singaporeautos.net/country/new-zealand and I think that they just help import old singapore cars to NZ or..is it related ? 3. I will obviously start googling like crazy once things work out but I was wondering if anyone here has expertise in the same ? EDITED BY RADX! STICK to the facts of yur intention. No need other details Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SuPerBoRed Twincharged November 30, 2016 Share November 30, 2016 it looks like you are soliciting for buyers more than anything... with such details... of ur current car... 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

shrjun 5th Gear November 30, 2016 Share November 30, 2016 it looks like you are soliciting for buyers more than anything... with such details... of ur current car... haha..no sir! It's because I'm quite attached to it ( although definitely NOT a car connoisseur's car ) and my head and heart are pulling me in different directions. I would most likely go with the path of least resistance if I decide to sell ( read ' dealer ' as I would be swamped with a tonne of other paperwork too ) . lol at the M4 comment - I prefer small cars.

Maybe you should go to NZ and look out for local agent. That's the easiest path to me. It takes a long time to get indent car in both Aust and NZ. I still miss the drive from Christchurch to Littleton Harbour using mountain road. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
