The JPJ explicitly states the LMM renewal slip can only be used within Malaysia and is not valid overseas. If you intend on driving in a foreign country, you’ll need to visit a JPJ counter to request for a physical card and pay RM20 for it. Similarly, the e-LMM can’t be used in foreign countries, so it looks you’ll have to get the physical card as well.

You’ll need to provide proof and any supporting documents such as travel tickets, an offer letter, a passport or any other relevant documents relating your trip overseas. Certain countries require an international driving permit (IDP), which is another thing you’ll have to pay for.


tldr:
So basically, just to get a physical driving lesen card, just like what we have now, need to go to JPJ office to apply. And whether can get also based on JPJ officer's discretion. On top of that, need to pay RM20 for the card.

not sure about you, feeling that this is a regressive move. More bureaucratic process and at the same time open for chances of power abuse.

i still dont und what this physical card is ?

Its different from the international driving license ?

Japan and a few other countries only accept the International Driving license, honestly, its just less hassle. LOL

all these requirements follow whichever country you're in. not something enforced by JPJ. JPJ got no jurisdiction there.

Idp if I recall cost 150 ringgit. Buta buta now another 20 ringgit

Senang je make money

Loke is useless and bodo. Period.

dude, this is not new 5 years ago I applied in jpj to drive in netherlands

Lol maybe only first timers are making the hoo haas

This is not new

since when people thought we can use our driving license to drive overseas other than within aseans?...basically thailand and SG only

everywhere else is IDP all the way

That's the plan... so called going paperless but the hidden agenda s to charge 'more' IF xxxxx

You can sell your car easily to other country if allowed. Those smugglers will be very rich & happy if the rule loosen.

Rent-A-Wreck accepts M'sian driving license cos there's English on the card. I presented that along with IDP at the counter; that 300lb woman handed back the IDP and only referred to driving license and passport

What is this? I just get a IDL in JPJ for RM150 to drive in Jepun, never heard of need physical license card for RM20.

because it's in english
but renting one and driving 1 is 2 different thing
if nothing happen is called lucky, but the moment u got pulled over by highway patrol...you'll be in trouble answering question
