PUSPAKOM B5 & JPJ Ownership Transfer Checklist (2026)
Step-by-step guide to vehicle inspection, biometric MySikap transfer, and document readiness for safe private vehicle sales.
Before transferring car ownership in Malaysia, the vehicle must pass a PUSPAKOM B5 inspection (valid for 30 days). Both buyer and seller then complete biometric fingerprint identification on JPJ MySikap. At PCC Kepong, our compliance team handles the entire Puspakom booking and on-site JPJ thumbprint verification.
- PUSPAKOM B5 (Transfer of Ownership inspection) is mandatory by law before any legal JPJ title transfer.
- Both seller and buyer must perform biometric thumbprint verification via JPJ MySikap to prevent ownership disputes.
- Outstanding summons and existing bank hire purchase encumbrances must be settled prior to transfer.
- Never agree to an open transfer ('geran terbang')—it leaves you legally liable for accidents and summonses.
1. What PUSPAKOM Checks in the B5 Inspection
The Puspakom B5 inspection checks vehicle chassis number (VIN) authenticity, engine number integrity, cut-and-join chassis detection, window tint compliance (MS 266 standard), and roadworthiness.
Inspection validity is 30 days from the date of the issued VR5 report. If the vehicle fails due to dark tint or modified exhaust, the owner has to rectify it and return for a re-test.
2. Official JPJ Biometric Transfer Process
Once Puspakom B5 passes, the seller initiates the transfer on JPJ MySikap using biometric fingerprint identification. The buyer then has 7 days to complete their biometric verification and register the new road tax.
PCC handles this entire procedure on-site at our Kepong showroom hub, ensuring zero paperwork delays and protecting you from post-sale legal disputes.
