KUALA LUMPUR, March 28 — The Computerised Vehicle Inspection Centre (Puspakom) Sdn Bhd has announced new rates for its mobile services, effective April 1.
The new charge for the mobile truck services (MTS) will increase from RM3,000 to RM3,300, while the mobile van services (MVS) will be raised from RM100 to RM120.
Its chief executive officer Mahmood Razak Bahman said the adjustments were made following careful consideration to align its service charges to reflect the current cost structure.
He said it was done after a thorough study to ensure the sustainability of Puspakom’s mobile services for the benefit of customers.
“Customers who bring their vehicles to Puspakom branches will not be affected by this change,” he said in a statement today.
The increase aligns with rising operational costs but Puspakom assured that vehicle inspection fees will remain unchanged.
The last review of service charges was conducted in 2007, despite annual increases in the Consumer Price Index.
MTS provides inspection services to companies with large fleets, including commercial vehicle operators, freight forwarding companies, driving schools, and vehicle dealers.
Meanwhile, MVS offer inspections for private vehicles, including transfer of ownership, expired road tax, and registration of imported vehicles.
