JPJ Sarikei takes vehicle-transfer thumbprint verification to an owner's home
-
A vehicle owner unable to reach a JPJ counter for health reasons received a home visit in Sarikei for the thumbprint verification needed for an ownership transfer.
Two officers from JPJ Sarikei's Vehicle Licensing Division carried out the check on October 7, following a request from the registered owner. JPJ Sarawak described the visit in a statement reported by TVS on October 8 and said it would continue expanding mobile-thumbprint services.
The service brings the identity check to the owner; it does not remove the ownership-transfer requirements. That distinction matters for families helping someone who cannot readily travel to a counter.
The Sarikei case gives those families a specific service to ask JPJ about before arranging a trip. It is not a promise that every request will qualify: the announcement did not set out statewide coverage, application steps, fees or waiting times. Arrangements for an individual owner still need to be confirmed with JPJ.
