Waiver of Non-transferability of COE for Categories A and B Vehicles

Ms Sylvia Lim asked the Minister for Transport under what circumstances has LTA waived the policy of non-transferability and permitted a transfer of COEs for Category A or B vehicles from one individual to another.

Mr Khaw Boon Wan: The Land Transport Authority (LTA) allows the Temporary COE for Category A and B vehicles to be transferred only if there are very serious and unforeseen changes in the COE holder’s circumstances which are beyond his or her control, such as when the COE holder has passed away. The Temporary COE can only be transferred to immediate family members.
