PUSPAKOM

PUSPAKOM is Malaysia's vehicle inspection specialist. Their inspections protect motorists and increase road safety.


"Your Safety, Our Priority"

Our roads are getting congested. The number of vehicles on Malaysian roads is increasing approximately 1 million per year. It is important that vehicles are fit for the road, to keep us all moving smoothly.

There are several types of Inspection of PUSPAKOM:

a. Initial Inspection

Before a new commercial vehicle can be registered with the Road Transport Department (RTD), or before the ownership of a vehicle can be transferred to another person, PUSPAKOM must verify that it complies with the legal standards set out in the Road Transport Act 1987, Motor Vehicles (Construction and Use) Rules 1959.


b. Routine Inspection

It is a mandatory requirement for all commercial vehicles to undergo a Routine Inspection at PUSPAKOM every 6 months, in order to certify compliance to the Road Transport Act 1987. During this inspection we will check the legality and road worthiness of the vehicle.


c. Re-Inspection

If your vehicle does not meet the requirements and standards of an Initial, Special or Routine Inspection, and fails, you will be required to rectify the problem(s) and come back for a re-inspection. We will re-inspect the previously failed item(s).


d. Special Inspection

If a commercial or private vehicle undergoes a change of engine, chassis or body specification, or a laden weight upgrade, it will need to undergo a special inspection at PUSPAKOM. This is a legal requirement to confirm the vehicle's physical condition and identity after the modifications have been made.

'Auction Inspection' refers to the inspection of a vehicle prior to, or immediately after, being auctioned off. PUSPAKOM will carry out a physical inspection to ensure compliance with legal requirements.


j. Imported Vehicle Inspection For Customs (IVIC)

PUSPAKOM currently has deployed implementing units at all major Malaysian ports to inspect imported vehicles on their arrival into Malaysia, on behalf of the Royal Malaysian Customs. The IVIC inspection, also known as the B6 inspection, covers all categories of imported vehicles, including new, used and reconditioned vehicles. 

These inspections are currently carried out at all entry points into Malaysia specifically Northport and Westport in Port Klang, Kota Kinabalu Port in Sabah and the Kuching Port in Sarawak. We also offer the B2 inspection, together with the B6 inspection, if so requested by the vehicle importers and agents.


k. Hire Purchase Inspection (HPI)

The HPI was introduced in June 2011 and was made compulsory under the law, in an effort to protect buyers of used vehicles from buying illegal or unroadworthy vehicles.

Any individual or organisation applying for a loan to purchase a used vehicle will need to show that the ehicle has undergone a Hire Purchase Inspection by producing a B7 report issued by PUSPAKOM. This Inspection includes 18 specific checks, a combination of identity checks and physical checks.


l. Insurance Inspection

If your vehicle is damaged in an accident and you make an insurance claim for the cost of the repairs, your insurance provider will request for an Insurance Inspection. PUSPAKOM will inspect the vehicle after the repairs have been made to ensure that they have been carried out properly and that the vehicle is now safe to drive. 

This inspection looks for evidence of cut-and-join repair work in particular. Once the vehicle has passed the inspection, the motor insurance company can process the renewal of your third party insurance.
