About 60% of the Vehicle Rental Association members' fleets have already been VEP-registered.

Getting the bulk of its fleet of more than 5,000 rental cars registered for VEP took Lumens around three months.

These cars are rented out for as short as a day, or are leased for up to three years or longer. Among the hirers are drivers of ride-hailing services who go into Malaysia for short trips, tourists and others who need a car to visit relatives across the border or for business. VRA is a registered society representing around 50 rental companies in Singapore. Its members have a combined fleet size of between 15,000 and 20,000 rental cars.

A Lumens spokesman said that the online registration process for VEP was relatively straightforward and the confirmation slip from the registration was given instantaneously.
