The infrastructure to enable e-Payment to the Government has been in place since 1 July 2008. As of 31 December 2008, 89 Government agencies have started accepting online payments for a total of 148 services.
For members of public who are not e-ready, payments can still be made the conventional way:
over the counter at post offices;
respective agencies;
banks; and
kiosks placed at selected places such as shopping malls.
Among the numerous e-payment services available are driver’s licence and road tax renewals, and settlement of summonses at Road Transport Department branches. Payment through e-services is also accepted at 111 approved sites for the booking of theory tests, issuance and renewal of learner driving licences, and renewal of competent driving licences.
Other departments and ministries that have extended their online services include The Royal Malaysian Police (PDRM) for traffic summonses, the Immigration Department, Land and Mines Department, Inland Revenue Board (IRB), Ministry of Education, Ministry of Finance and Public Service Department.
Settlement of the Assessment Tax through e-payment is also accepted for most of the local councils throughout the country.
