Transport Minister Datuk Seri Liow Tiong Lai said the RC system will be activated at the two entrances of land in Johor ie at the Causeway and Second Link.
According to him, the payment will be collected each time the foreign vehicles entering the country through the card system 'Touch N'Go'.
"The first step involves only the collection of foreign vehicles only and does not include motorcycles with foreign registration numbers, "he said in a statement here today.
Meanwhile, Liow urged all owners of foreign vehicles in order to register the vehicle information of each system vehicle entry Permit (VEP) to ensure smooth inflow to Malaysia as soon as the system is implemented.
"Not to be confused with RC, system VEP is a system of registration of the vehicle automatically and it is part of ongoing efforts by the government to improve the monitoring and control of the border.
Malaysia raise entry fees as in 2014 Singapore increased the VEP charge for Malaysian cars entering in Saudi Arabia to 20$.
