Applying for MM2H is a simple process and you can apply for it directly.
Why pay someone thousands of RM to do it for you?
PM me if you need any assistance.

By the way, any foreigner whose is not a SPR can drive a Malaysian car in Singapore.

Thanks for your offer of help, will pm you if need help...

BTW, are you Australian or Asian?

Does it mean the driver is Malaysian, will suffice? They do not check who owns the car, do they?

I am a citizen of Australia and got my MM2H in 2013 by direct application.
Malaysian driver who is not SPR can drive a Malaysian car in Singapore with no problem. You need to apply for “AutoPass” card at the CIQ where the owner particulars are registered (presume, they need to send summons to you).

So it is ok even if a Singaporean owns the Malaysia car, to have a Malaysian drive us into Sg? Maybe I better clarify with LTA.

Not ok, even if you get a MY driver to drive but the car is in Singaporean's name also not OK.

But I just called LTA and the CSO checked for me and say ok , as Long as driver not singaporean. Good for me as I can ask my Malaysian Uncle to drive us in sometimes..

I remember a post here which says what I just said, better ask other members to verify, if the loop hole was so simple, every one would do it. Just call it car pool service and let Malaysian drive in and people like Frodo no need to ride bike into Singapore.

Yes this was what was posted before, thanks for posting.

Freedom, please read the dos and donts, dunno which LTA CSO you talking but info is wrong.

 

[freedom]

Yeah, called again and this time, they say cannot...

But no big deal, will just take public transport into Sg, any way only need to come in max 2 x a week if wanna work...

According to a senior retired district judge old friend of mine, the law is at work here. Not sure if he is senile or or..

You see, the Sinkie law applies strictly to singkie cars and singkie citizens. If you notice, there is no "sentence" being listed out for these sort of ""offence" unlike 3/4 tank rule where they will fine you $500 and ask u to U-turn back to Singapore.

 

[Investor888]

Boss, pls check out before you post anything like this. The sinkie rule says singaporeans or spr are not allowed to use or driver or keep foreign registered vehicles WITHIN Singapore. However, if the driver is a Malaysian, no problem at all even if the car belongs to the sinkie

I always said once you are born a sinkie, the only good thing is the HDB in which you must buy and sell. Other than that, a Sinkie life is worse than a Cockroach.

Not ok, even if you get a MY driver to drive but the car is in Singaporean's name also not OK.

There was a post that said, as long as the car is owned by Singaporean, it cannot be driven into Singapore, regardless of nationality of the driver.

Mr Zainal Sapari asked the Minister for Transport whether LTA will consider allowing Singaporeans driving Malaysian-registered vehicles to enter Singapore on Fridays after 6 pm without utilising their 28-weekday provision.

Reply by Transport Minister Lui Tuck Yew: As a concession, on a case-by-case basis, Singaporeans working and residing in Malaysia are already allowed to use their Malaysia-registered vehicles in Singapore for up to 28 weekdays a year, in addition to Saturdays, Sundays and Singapore public holidays. Such restrictions are necessary so that ownership of foreign-registered vehicles does not become a means to circumvent our vehicle ownership policies, and so that we are fair to Singaporeans who own Singapore-registered vehicles.

Hope that helps.

My Malaysian GF has been driving in and out of Singapore herself using my Malaysian car. No issue at all. Even kena accident 3 times in Singapore. No problem but TP need to be present cos its foreign vehicle.

There was a post that said, as long as the car is owned by Singaporean, it cannot be driven into Singapore, regardless of nationality of the driver.

 

[Investor888]

My next step is actually to apply to LTA to allow me to drive my Infiniti into Singapore. It costs S$60,000 in JB compared to S$170,000 in Sinkieland. Damn expensive dog life we have in Singapore.
