Just ensure you communicate to the buyer that they will need to purchase insurance before name transfer... last thing you want is to have any complications on the day itself.

Actually just easy for buyer to purchase insurance in advance, just need copy of reg card.

Yes, insurance & car owner must be same person.

Current insurance coverage can be cancel, and get back any prorate amount if eligible.

You cannot do name transfer for a vehicle without insurance coverage of the buyer.

Hi Chrix,
Thanks for your answer. Clear to me now.

So i manage to persuade buyer to purchase the insurance earlier. He bought the insurance 3 days earlier.
We kind of worried if road tax can only be done for 6 months only.
But today, we went to change the car ownership, everything went smoothly. He got to do road tax for 1 year.

Dear all sifus,

I recently booked a new car. Paid for full insurance for the new car. My current ride NCD is 25%. Insurance expiring August 2018. My SA told me to let the insurance expires on it own and then they will refund me the balance 5% (30%-5%) after the insurance expires. My current ride, there is a buyer already. I read that in order to transfer name I need to cancel my insurance? Can I dont cancel, let it expires naturally and transfer name at the same time? Number plate will be different as I am taking my plate to the new car. Thanks for advise.

Hi, I've read some of the postings in this topic here, but my situation is different from the general scenario explained.

Let's say I've found a buyer on my own and our agreement was that he will handle puspakom inspection and the jpj procedures. So, I expect to be officially handing my car to him within next week after Raya.

Now I have just booked a new car, and the car is expected to arrive around mid-July, which is about a month or less. If I intend to interchange my old car plate to my new incoming car, does it mean I have to ask the buyer to do 2 inspections at Puspakom? Cos the standard one is just vehicle ownership transfer, right? Now I have to do interchange inspection too?

I understand the inspection report is valid for 1 month. Does that mean my old car plate can go without a physical vehicle registered to it for 1 month? At the same time, the buyer can get a new car plate for the car that I sold to him? When does he do that? When we go to jpj for the biometrics?

Hope you guys can help advise, and if possible pls let me know if there are specific steps that I have to do in sequence if I missed out mentioning...

I'm actually confused with what step comes first, if interchange is involved. Cos I know the 1st post in this thread is already sufficient (so informative, thank you!), but that's without interchange.

I am confused over this matter of insurance
I will be selling my car and transferring ownership at JPJ on the 25 June
Must I cancel my insurance on on the 25 ? Or just leave it and only cancel after the transfer of ownership.
And the buyer buys a new insurance on the 25?

I will be selling my old car to 2nd hand dealer next week. I wont be driving the old car anymore as I've gotten my new car.

Is it ok for me to cancel the car insurance before i sell the old car? or must I wait until after the ownership transfer is completed?

i recently just completed a scenario of selling off my sister's old car and changing the old number plate to new car...
sharing some complexity of my scenario

at the point of registering new car, we've already got a buyer of the old car..
so we sent the old car to puspakom for the purpose of [swap number plate]..
after that then the new car SA proceed to register new car..
initially we plan to transfer the NCD now, but when come to this point, i realize that if we terminate the old car insurance now, later how am i gonna send the old car to puspakom again (coz by right no valid insurance should not drive on the road right)...

so we then decided not to transfer the NCD first, we do it later.

then after new car registration done, old car is now under new number plate, with roadtax also.
then new scenario comes up with the old car, the situation now is that old car with new number plate actually got no valid insurance also, coz we did not change the previous policy to new number plate.. when my insurance agent asked me for the puspakom report for [swap number plate], i do not have it (probably when register new car they already submit to JPJ, i'm not sure).. im not sure is it compulsary to have the report to change policy, but then we also think that if i change the new policy now, nxt week then i need to terminate this insurance again coz it will have a new owner..

the situation now is that the old car got roadtax but no valid insurance, what am i gonna do? should i take the risk to drive to puspakom for another inspection for the purpose of [change of ownerhip]?
eventually, after considering, i decided to take the risk with the following reason 1)this car is now actually got a valid roadtax 2)try luck pray hard not to kena any accident in the journey to puspakom and back.
in the end i get a runner help to send car for puspakom inspection... fortunately, all done without any issue.. .


next is the JPJ side for old car..
this is much simpler, my sister went to JPJ with the geran, fill in the form for [change of ownership], less than 5mins done.
JPJ will give a slip for this
then, pass this slip, together with puspakom report (B5 form) and geran to the new owner.. new owner need to complete his process within 7 days. he also be responsible to settle the insurance for the old car.
after complete new owener will get a new geran, then everything settle...


jz sharing my exerience.
hopefully can help to clear some doubt for anyone in a similar scenario.


***some addtional info***
- old and new car also register under my sister's name.
- i dont knw why JPJ will issue new roadtax for old car since we doesn't provide any insurance, but i guess this is normal case?
- the last part at JPJ, seller and buyer can go separately, only thing is must settle within 7 days. the payment to be paid when new buyer complete the process.
- for NCD, we only terminate and transfer to new car after completing the old car 2nd puspakom inspection for [change of owenership]

I’m selling my car to another private buyer. Puspakom procedure done. I have the b5 b7 and b2 done.
Which ones does the buyer need to pay for ?
And , we don’t have to meet correct ? He’s in a different state.
And he is applying loan from the bank. I have fully settled my car payment .

Hi, sorry if this has been discussed before, but may I know the actual procedure of car ownership transfer from the deceased? My father passed away months ago. The car loan is already settled and he had no will.

Can I know what is the procedure for ownership transfer from Sole Proprietor Company to Private Limited Company.

hey im going for Owner Transfer Inspection tmrw...wanted to ask do i need to wash the car/engine etc for this ?

If normal dirt & grime no need la unless there are cobwebs or other creatures in there to scare the puspakom peeps.

Hi my father is going to transfer his car ownership to me. The car is with me in PJ, and UTC JPJ in my hometown has confirmed that they can do the ownership transfer. So I plan to bring the car to Puspakom myself as runner is charging RM300. Runner said Puspakom will kacau car that is more than 10 years. My car is 14 years but still function well. Should I be worried about this?

All my cars aged more than 10years when I bought them. no issue also...he is just scaring you.

If vehicle is legal, and road worthy.. no reason why it would not pass B5 inspection. Most common roadblock is tint...what I can say is different puspakom branch has different results for tint inspection (dont ask me why, its just a fact outside KL/SEL are more relax for tint), so if U want total worry-free experience, remove all tinting first.

A car i bough had failed VLT test in one PUSPAKOM, seller recommended another branch.... magically, it passed.

Also ensure u have insurance purchased before JPJ name transfer.

Thank you so much for your reply!
So I just need to make appointment and bring necessary document..

Previously my husband traded in his car for RM5000 incentive on Proton, his car gone through thorough inspection at Puspakom and failed numerous times. That inspection is different from this change of ownership inspection, right?

http://www.puspakom.com.my/transfer-of-ownership/
Change ownership (B5 its called if Im not mistaken, not HP inspection), whereby they dont even inspect effectiveness of your brakes (unlike change engine for example), so I am not sure what inspection you are referring to. You need to refer to the results of the inspection slip on why it failed.


By the way, http://www.puspakom.com.my/premier-mobile-inspection/ if you want them to come to you instead.

is page 1 procedure still valid?
macam easy je....
