The Motorist Guide on how to check your JPJ blacklist status in Malaysia 2025

Imagine this: you're all set to renew your road tax, you queue up, and when you finally get to the counter, the officer gives you the bad news: "Sorry, you can't renew. Your name is blacklisted."

It's a frustrating experience that thousands of Malaysians face. Being on the JPJ (Jabatan Pengangkutan Jalan) blacklist can halt all your vehicle-related transactions, from road tax and insurance renewal to transferring ownership.

But what if you could check your status anytime, anywhere? This guide will show you exactly how to check your JPJ blacklist status step-by-step, including the fastest official methods and how a "super app" can help you manage it all.

First: What is a "JPJ Blacklist"?

Before we begin, it's important to clarify that the blacklist is not tied to your "name" alone. It is linked to your MyKad (IC) number or your vehicle registration number.

You can be blacklisted for several reasons, most commonly:

• Unpaid JPJ Summons: Outstanding speeding tickets, parking fines, or other traffic violations issued by JPJ.

• Unpaid PDRM Summons: Unsettled traffic summonses issued by the police (Polis Diraja Malaysia).

• AES Summons: Fines from the Automated Enforcement System (speed and red-light cameras).

• Court Orders: Failure to appear in court for traffic-related offenses.

The main consequence? You are blocked from all JPJ transactions until the outstanding fines are settled.

How to Check Your JPJ Blacklist Status (Official Methods)

Here are the most reliable ways to check your status.

Method 1: The MyJPJ App (Fastest & Easiest)

This is the official mobile application from the Jabatan Pengangkutan Jalan and is the most recommended method.

1. Download: Get the MyJPJ app from the Apple App Store, Google Play Store, or Huawei AppGallery.

2. Register: You will need to register an account using your MyKad (IC) number. This is a one-time setup (if you don't already have a MySikap account).

3. Login: Log in to the app.

4. Check Status: On the main dashboard or in your profile, you can view your digital road tax (e-LMM), digital driver's license (e-LMM), and any active summons or blacklist status.

5. View Details: The app will show a "Semakan Senarai Hitam" (Blacklist Status Inquiry) or a list of your summonses. If it's clear, you're safe.

Method 2: The JPJ MySikap Portal

If you prefer using a desktop, the MySikap portal is the official web-based version.

1. Visit: Go to the official JPJ MySikap portal.

2. Login: Log in with your registered ID and password (the same as your MyJPJ app).

3. Navigate: Find the section for "Semakan Status Senarai Hitam" or "Inquiry."

4. Enter Details: You may need to re-confirm your IC number.

5. View Results: The system will display your current status.

Method 3: Check PDRM (Police) Summons

Sometimes, your JPJ transactions are blocked by police summons, not JPJ ones. It's crucial to check both.

1. Visit: Go to the official PDRM portal, MyBayar Saman.

2. Login/Register: Use your IC number to register an account.

3. View Dashboard: The dashboard will immediately show you if you have any outstanding PDRM summonses that could lead to a blacklist.
