Although delayed, you will need an account to access MyJPJ and check your road tax and driving license. As the government pushes for digitisation, more government departments and even companies in the private sector like banks are expected to use the system to simplify access to government services. Here&#8217;s how you can set up a MyDigital ID account.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_8679\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-8679\" style=\"width: 844px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-8679\" src=\"https:\/\/carro.co\/my\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/MyDigital-ID-11.png\" alt=\"MyDigital ID\" width=\"844\" height=\"505\" srcset=\"https:\/\/carro.co\/my\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/MyDigital-ID-11.png 844w, https:\/\/carro.co\/my\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/MyDigital-ID-11-768x460.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 844px) 100vw, 844px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-8679\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.digital-id.my\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Source<\/a>.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h2>Online registration<\/h2>\n<p>By far the best way to register for something, registering online is convenient and quick.

Take off any accessories like your glasses before you start the video portion. Fit your face to the oval and the oval will turn green.
