Drivers Licence
Has anyone got a drivers licence, without being on the MM2H scheme, if so how was the procedure, hard, easy.
Thanks Frank |

Re: Drivers Licence
is it easy to buy a car here and get it insured with just a UK licence?

Re: Drivers Licence
Just got mine last week. I'm not on an MM2H but the process was the same. I had some extra complications as I was converting an Aussie license not a UK one so had to get some extra paperwork from New South Wales first. Otherwise straightforward. I assume you have the documents for MM2H? If not let me know and I can PM you them tomorrow.
Once you have the documents together its RM 30 per year for the license which will be set to expire on your birthdate so you may pay a fraction of a year also. |
Re: Drivers Licence
Just read bakedbeans reply and concur, I also had an assortment of advice before deciding to get the Malaysian license. I'm still not convinced it was necessary but with the local license now in my wallet along with my Aussie one you can't go wrong. (I currently have an IDP also).

Re: Drivers Licence
Thanks very much for that Nakrob.
Am here on MM2H myself. birthday next month so may wait till then and get full 12 months ...then again, RM30 is nothing really eh. kenny :thumb: |
Re: Drivers Licence
Kenny, sorry my previous post may have confused you. You pay pro rata for the remainder of the year. Ie in March I paid RM105 for 3.5 years; RM15 until my dob in Sept 13, then an additional 3 years at RM30 per year. Max validity is 5 years but my contract is not that long :(

Re: Drivers Licence
I find it handy as an ID. Saves carrying passport about.

Re: Drivers Licence
But if buying a new car in Malaysia,will a UK one be acceptable?
or maybe dealer doesnt need to see licence |
