Over the past week, motorists accessing the road transport department’s (JPJ) MyJPJ mobile app by entering their 12-digit identification card (MyKad) number and password might have found that they can still do so, despite MyDigital ID having been announced as the sole login method for the app starting from February 1, 2026.
This is because the deadline for that requirement has been extended to March 1, likely to give those who haven’t registered for it the chance to do so. Back in November last year, it indicated that around 13 million users have downloaded or registered for the MyJPJ app, and from that figure, 1.3 million users had begun using their MyDigital ID to log into the app.
It added that around 11 million users had still to register for MyDigital ID at that point. There’s no update on registrations, but given how Malaysians tend to be at these things, you can assume that the percentage of those still unregistered is likely very high.
If you haven’t, get going. It’s a simple enough process to sign up. This only applies to Malaysian users above the age of 18, as those under that age as well as MyPR card holders will continue to use the traditional login method.

These walaun are trying to discredit Anthony Loke . It’s just another login ID. What do rakyat got to lose ? Not that they arent already uniquely identified by their NRIC
didnt they had an attempt to do so previously, only got backlash so bad that they rollback it?
It is understood that MyDigital ID log-in is being a security measure when conducting online transactions via government apps like MyJPJ, but the conventional ID & password log-in into MyJPJ should still be allowed for only to display status of driving licence & vehicle road tax.
