You should be able to register any state number plate from any JPJ office.

What's important is which area the road tax is registered to.

For example,

One of my cars is registered to Sabah number plate in Semenanjung  Malaysia.

I bought the Sabah plate at Padang Jawa JPJ & register the car there.

Yes, you can register your motor vehicle with any States in Malaysia except for Labuan and Langkawi which are duty-free zone areas. Motor vehicles from these two places can only be driven in the rest of Malaysia for a certain period of time in a calendar year. The motor vehicles' prices on the road (before insurance) are lower than rest of the Malaysia.

Yes, you are right.

But what about the Labuan plates?

If car is bought in Semenanjung, but owner wanted to buy Labuan plates & register the car for usage in Semenanjung.

Should be possible.

I still believe you can't do that. It is obvious to identify whether the car is bought from a duty-free area/zone is look at their registration number plate. Thus, if you are allowed to register a car from these places even though it came with all the duties paid doesn't make sense. Customs will have a tough time carrying out audit on such cars and this also can lead to abuses. The best place to confirm is with JPJ.

Labuan is duty free zone. Similar to langkawi plates, Labuan plates is only reserved for duty-free cars registered in Labuan.

Want Labuan plates but register the car for usage in Semenanjung? Yes, can. Here are the steps;

1. Purchase your desired car (in this case it will be a X50 since this is an X50 thread)
2. Register the car in Labuan (only)
3. Once registered, you have 90 days to use the car in Peninsular Malaysia. Other than that, the car has to remain on Labuan soil for the rest of the year.
4. Want to bring the car out to use for more than 90 days? Yes, can. Pay the fine. Or risk getting the car seized and get lelong by kastam.

Exactly what I mentioned in my first email that you can use the car only for a specific period of time in a calendar year. To the person who posed the question, why do you want to do it? Is it because the Labuan alphabet resembles your initial so you want to register your car there?

Heads-up / sharing here for X50 users.

My X50 went for 1k/1month first service on last week.

Proton 3S center informed their Proton system is down and insisted you must paid first for 1st services.

To make it short, I have to argued my way out with the manager and insisted not to pay anything until their system is up for clarification. The solution now, if system is up and claim I not the user first 30,000 booking then I will have make my complaint to Proton HQ.

As I have an official receipt that I booked before they even announce 20k booking from 2 weeks after launching. Thus I'm very sure I'm one of the 20k customers who booked earlier.

This is their offer, must follow. I can't say want lower loan or higher loan amount. They fix it for X50 at 70k. Take or leave. If customize amt/year, all needs to renegotiate and may get higher rates, according to the offers from my end

My loan with HLB 98k

I signed up for Utility Package 3.3k already, and for whatever colour that comes available soonest. Else, book today, get in 2022 most likely. And if can wait, for bookings after June, you can skip the package.

If take 2022 you will need to pay SST, the most important you may not getting 2.2x interest rate when economy bounce back.

Bro I had similar case when I sent my car for service last one month plus. They talked and explained to me politely and told me that they will contact me for the update. Indeed, 2 weeks later they called me and said my refund was on the way and got it in another week later. I know I can make a scene and call Proton, resist to make payment or go to another SC and try to find out elsewhere. But I just didn't. They are 3s or 4s dealer, there are rules and guides they have to follow and they wont simply do things as they like. (I also heard news that certain Proton dealer were being punished just for jumping queue on the car allocations).

Just wanted the alphabet in front. But per advice here, seems I can consider all other states except duty free zones. Sad. Thanks to all.

Which is the most in demand colours and least in demand colours? Any idea?

I booked X50 Executive yesterday and my SA say can get reject colours or reject loan cases within 3 months.

I just did my 1000 km service last Saturday and it's free no question asked. Service advisor also mentioned there is 5 free labour charges. It was Jawira Balakong for those who are interested.

Highest demand would be Red, White and Grey. Lowest demand will be Silver and Orange. But of course, they may be different for different dealers

Different outlets different situation. Someone said red, but in the outlet I went to, nobody ordered red. Lots of order for jet grey. Another outlet I went to, lots of ppl ordered red. So it all depends on which outlet you went to.

Oh well, okay. My first choice is the blue. Red would be nice too but that’s not available for Executive variant.

No, that I'm disagreed with you here on my situation.

To me the problem is the dealer also cant commit to the system will settle and refund within 1-2 months. I already compromising, if they cant commit why should I.
After all, I been given excuses from day of booking that system error can't check booking, then also after that can't confirm chasis due system down. Lastly here system down on servicing records.

No that I'm dealing with different branch, they do have the physical records.

Thus I put it as my sharing for other users. If you are unlucky, you wont able to get refund due their stupid system upgrade.
If you are taking risks, this is up to you. Respected your decision.
