JPJ collected RM5.65 bil in 2025; up 6%, highest ever takings – last call 50% saman discount contributed

JPJ collected RM5.65 billion in 2025, its highest ever revenue in a calendar year. The record takings is 6.05% higher than the RM5.33 billion collected in 2024, which was the previous record. Prior to that, the all-time high was RM5.074 billion in 2023, so it’s year after year of records for the road transport department, just like a certain car company.

JPJ director-general Datuk Aedy Fadly Ramli told Kosmo that October and December were the best performing months, with revenue surpassing RM500 million. The 50% last call saman discount programme that ran from November 1 to the end of 2025 also contributed to the cause.

Aedy Fadly said that revenue from road tax (Lesen Kenderaan Motor) was the biggest contributor at RM3.43 billion, while takings from driving licenses (Lesen Memandu Malaysia) and summonses were RM614 million and RM426 million respectively. The D-G explained that JPJ’s implementation of digital services such as the MyJPJ app was among the factors that helped revenue stay above the RM5 billion mark.

“Other than that, the implementation of various enforcement operations and safety campaigns, as well as the strengthening of governance, as well as internal controls and integrity, contributed to the overall revenue,” he said. No mention of number plate sales, but you can do the math based on the figures above.

JPJ’s head added that Ops Perang Lebih Muatan, which targets overweight lorries, recorded 3,563 offences since the operations was launched on October 14. As of December 30, 169,965 vehicles were inspected and of this total, 6,340 were sent to the scales.
