Hi guys,

I just did vehicle ownership transfer at JPJ yesterday morning, but when I tried to buy insurance through TNG app (for easy renewal), it shows IC does not match with car, probably haven't update yet. I tried to do in insurance company website and same problem still exist.

What should I do? Or I must buy through agent?

Either you wait system update or buy thru agent, they can manual key in

Usually how long it takes for the system update?

U can renew insurance urself online.

But u can't BUY insurance for 1st time online by urself.

Go to ANY insurance company branch.

Based on my experience, it usually takes about 10 days. You'll most likely need to contact an agent. I understand you might not want to wait, especially with your new car right in front of you but unable to drive

this kind of transfer owner insurance online won't be able to help you.
but now younger generations all buy online (and don't support local neighborhood business), sure can find a way online. if u can find let me know also

How you managed to do the transfer without insurance?
Normally need to have an open cover insurance cover note ready before you proceed to do the tukarmilik. Then when JPJ updates the info, your insurer would pick up and endorse.

previously yes, u r correct.
but nowdays u can tukar ownership, just cannot renew road tax.

You mean nowadays they allow just change to new owner without any replacement insurance policy?
So the buyer can just keep the car till the time they want to drive it then arrange for insurance and roadtax?

yes. u got this right again.

Good news for people who buy 'project cars' since car always in workshop, so no need to waste insurance and roadtax..hehehe
