BJAK offers free road tax renewals, millions to benefit

BJAK Sdn Bhd, a leading Malaysian digital insurance platform, has launched a groundbreaking program offering free road tax renewals to all Malaysians.

This initiative, valued at RM150 million, aims to revolutionise road tax renewal in the country.

Digital platform paves way for digitalisation

Since its inception, BJAK has championed digital innovation within the automotive industry.

The free road tax program, launched in March 2024, underscores their commitment to streamlining administrative processes for Malaysians.

“We are excited to offer this opportunity to renew road tax for free,” said Mandy Foong, BJAK’s VP of Marketing.

“This aligns perfectly with our vision of accelerating Malaysia’s digitalisation.”

The program is expected to benefit over 6 million Malaysians, providing a convenient and accessible platform for road tax renewal.

“This initiative encourages more Malaysians to embrace digital solutions,” Foong added, highlighting the program’s focus on simplicity and convenience.

Beyond free renewals: Addressing financial concerns

The program complements the Malaysian government’s MyRoadTax digitisation efforts and the country’s broader digital transformation agenda.

By promoting online renewals, BJAK aims to reduce reliance on physical renewal centres, minimising queues and boosting efficiency.

Recognizing financial burdens, BJAK offers an insurance renewal installment plan alongside the free road tax program.

This allows customers to spread their insurance payments over a year, making the process more manageable.

The program also demonstrates BJAK’s commitment to environmental sustainability. Reduced reliance on paper-based transactions and physical travel contributes to a greener future.

This initiative aligns with the national push for digitalisation, mirroring efforts by the Road Transport Department (JPJ) to introduce a digital road tax system.

Malaysians are encouraged to take advantage of the free road tax program and embrace the convenience of online renewals.

BJAK’s program offers more than just cost savings; it’s a step towards a more digital and efficient future for Malaysia.
