Hello all,
I will be relocating to KL in Jan '17 from South Africa.
Would anyone know if a South African driving license is accepted and if not what is the correct process to follow to get a Malaysian driving license?
Thanks for the advice!
Hi Jaco. I am from Cape Town and will relocate to KL in Feb. Enquire at any AA office who can help you with international drivers licence. You will find a AA offices at any major shopping centre. Otherwise all this info is available on Google

Thanks Mmiki. I will do that.
Good luck with your relocation.
Hi Jaco,
I am from Cape Town and have been in Malaysia for a couple of years. You may use your South African license here. I wanted to convert mine but I couldn't, as I am a junior staff, instead they (JPJ in Putrajaya) told me to continue using my SA license. Don't bother with the "international permit" as it is merely a translation of your SA license into several languages, of which Malay is not one of them. If you'll be here for a while it might be worth converting to a local one to avoid having to renew it back home.
All the best
South African license was excepted in Malaysia.
