Many people may find it inconvenient to renew their car tax at the Department of Land Transport on regular weekdays because they work from Monday to Friday. However, now there is a way for us to renew our car tax on weekends or public holidays!

Renewing vehicle tax is something car owners must do annually. If you fail to renew your vehicle tax for more than 3 years, the use and registration of your vehicle will be cancelled. You'll need to apply for a new vehicle registration for that car, along with paying the backdated tax fees.

However, some people may not be able to travel to the Department of Land Transport to renew their vehicle tax on regular weekdays, possibly due to work commitments or personal activities. It's often more convenient to handle such matters on weekends. Let's see where you can renew your vehicle tax on Saturdays and Sundays.
