Malaysia and Singapore Increase Cross-Border Taxi Quota to 500 Per Country
Published
Malaysia and Singapore will increase the quota of licensed cross-border taxis from 300 to 500 for each country. This change will take effect from 16 November 2026.
In addition to increasing the taxi quota, both countries have also allowed two new e-hailing operators to be added to this service. This move aims to facilitate the travel of people who frequently move between the two countries.
Cross-border travel between Malaysia and Singapore is very important for tourists, workers, and students. Every day, many people use taxis to get to work, school, or holiday destinations. With a larger quota, it is hoped that more transport options will be available to passengers.
So far, further details regarding the conditions and implementation of this change have not been fully announced. The public is advised to continue following official information from the authorities of both countries.
