Before that time comes, it would be wise to renew your license so you won\u2019t have to deal with driving around with an expired license\u2014which is of course against the law.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span style=\"color: #808080;\">When to Renew your Malaysian Driving License<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In Malaysia, the <strong><span style=\"color: #3366ff;\">expiry date<\/span><\/strong> of your driving license&nbsp;is typically set to your own birthday. This makes it easier to remember when it\u2019s time to get it renewed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When obtaining your very first driving license&nbsp;in Malaysia, its&nbsp;<strong><span style=\"color: #3366ff;\">validity period<\/span><\/strong>&nbsp;can be anywhere from a minimum of one year to a maximum of five years. You can select how long it will stay valid, though each year will add more to the fee.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When it comes to renewing a Class A or Class A1 driving license, the cost of the fee will be RM 2 each year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When it comes to renewing a Class B, Class B2 or a Class C license, the cost of the fee will be RM 20 each year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When it comes to the most standard driving license&nbsp;class in Malaysia, Class D, the fee alternates based on how many years you choose it to be valid for.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>1 year of validity costs RM 30<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>2 years of validity costs RM 60<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>3 years of validity costs RM 90<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>4 years of validity costs RM 120<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>5 years of validity costs RM 150<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"303\" height=\"193\" src=\"https:\/\/www.aipassportphotos.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/malaysian-driving-license.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-175\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.aipassportphotos.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/malaysian-driving-license.png 303w, https:\/\/www.aipassportphotos.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/malaysian-driving-license-300x191.png 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 303px) 100vw, 303px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span style=\"color: #808080;\">Renewing your Malaysian Driving License&nbsp;in Person<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Renewing your license in person is the most traditional way to do so and is still the preferred option for some people. There are three different places you can choose to go.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The first is your local <strong><span style=\"color: #3366ff;\">Malaysian post office<\/span><\/strong>. Any Pos Malaysia facility is equipped to help you renew your driving license. You need to bring with you your current driving license&nbsp;and your MyKad identity card to begin the process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The second kind of location you can go to renew your Malaysian driving license&nbsp;is the <strong><span style=\"color: #3366ff;\">Road Transport Department <\/span><\/strong>of Malaysia, or the JPJ. Just like with the post office, bring your current driving license&nbsp;and your MyKad. You can also bring an optional photo that you want to use as your new license photograph.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The third and final place you can go to renew your Malaysian driving license&nbsp;is the Urban Transportation Center (UTC). While not all UTCs have the ability to renew your driving license, most do. To make sure that the one near you can renew your driving license, use their <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/utc.center.com.my\/branches-in-malaysia\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\"><u>official website<\/u><\/a><\/strong>&nbsp;to check and see.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span style=\"color: #808080;\">Renewing your Malaysian Driving License&nbsp;Online<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In case you consider renewing your driving license&nbsp;to be too much of a hassle, you are in luck. As of October 2020, Malaysia officially made it possible to renew your driving license&nbsp;online as a result of the Covid-19 pandemic and lockdowns.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can now go to the official <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.myeg.com.my\/services\/jpj\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\"><u>Myeg website<\/u><\/a><\/strong>&nbsp;and complete their online application form so that you can skip the lines in person. This includes paying for your fees online as well as setting your driving license&nbsp;photo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Keep in mind that there are certain exceptions to this rule. Only standard Malaysian driving licenses can be renewed online such as the Class D license. The LDL or Learner\u2019s driving license&nbsp;and the PDL or Probationary driving license&nbsp;cannot be renewed online and will have to be renewed in a physical location, as per the ones mentioned above.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span style=\"color: #808080;\">Selecting your Malaysian Driving License&nbsp;Photo<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>One of the most important aspects of renewing your driving license&nbsp;is making sure the photograph is right. This is especially true if your Malaysian driving license&nbsp;photo is valid for a maximum of five years. No one wants a photo that looks unappealing or unprofessional.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you want to sculpt the perfect picture for your Malaysian driving license, it is highly recommended to use the tools provided by <strong>AiPassportPhotos<\/strong>. This online\u00a0photo\u00a0editing\u00a0tool\u00a0uses advanced artificial intelligence technology and cutting-edge software programs so you can craft the ultimate picture for your driving license.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/www.aipassportphotos.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/1688528239937-1024x500.png\" alt=\"Malaysia Driving License Photo Example\" class=\"wp-image-1234\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.aipassportphotos.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/1688528239937-1024x500.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.aipassportphotos.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/1688528239937-300x146.png 300w, https:\/\/www.aipassportphotos.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/1688528239937-768x375.png 768w, https:\/\/www.aipassportphotos.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/1688528239937-1536x750.png 1536w, https:\/\/www.aipassportphotos.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/1688528239937.png 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>AiPassportPhotos\u2019 facial recognition technology is capable of honing in on your face with perfect accuracy, and isolating it from the background.

You must keep in mind that if a Malaysian driving license\u00a0is expired for more than three years, it will be considered invalid. At that point, you may no longer renew and will have to obtain an all-new replacement, which is its <a href=\"https:\/\/www.aipassportphotos.com\/blog\/how-to-get-a-driving-license-in-malaysia\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">own process<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is why it\u2019s important to renew your driving license&nbsp;as soon as it expires, as it will be a faster and cheaper process. Considering how simple the renewal process is, it\u2019s in your best interest to get a new Malaysian driving license&nbsp;as soon as possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span style=\"color: #808080;\">Conclusion<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Renewing your Malaysian driving license&nbsp;is a pretty simple process, but it isn\u2019t free, unfortunately. And the longer you want your license to be valid for, the more it will cost.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, we recommend renewing it for a&nbsp;maximum of five years in order to save yourself the trouble of needing to renew it again anytime soon.
