Carro Now Offers MV15 B5 Inspection Bookings
What Is the Carro MV15 B5 Inspection Service?
The Carro MV15 B5 inspection is a vehicle inspection service offered by Carro Malaysia specifically for the mandatory B5 ownership transfer inspection required by the Road Transport Department (JPJ) when a used car changes ownership. Carro, a leading online used-car platform in Malaysia, now allows owners to book this inspection directly through its app or website, eliminating the need to visit a separate Puspakom centre. The service is designed for Malaysian car sellers and buyers who need a quick, JPJ-compliant inspection to complete the transfer of ownership. According to the source article, Carro’s MV15 B5 inspection covers the same checks as the standard JPJ B5 inspection, including vehicle identification, chassis number verification, and roadworthiness assessment.

How Do I Book the MV15 B5 Inspection at Carro?
To book the MV15 B5 inspection, you must have a Carro account and a vehicle that requires a JPJ B5 ownership transfer inspection. Open the Carro app or website, navigate to the “Services” section, select “MV15 B5 Inspection,” choose your preferred date and location, and complete payment. Carro will then send a confirmation with the inspection centre address and time slot. The entire process takes approximately 15 minutes online.
According to the source article, Carro’s booking system integrates with its existing used-car marketplace, allowing sellers to schedule the inspection immediately after listing a vehicle. “Carro’s new service allows customers to book the MV15 B5 inspection directly through their platform, simplifying the ownership transfer process,” the article states.
What Does the MV15 B5 Inspection Cover?
The MV15 B5 inspection covers the same checks as the standard JPJ B5 inspection: verification of the vehicle’s chassis number, engine number, and registration details; a roadworthiness check including brakes, lights, tyres, and suspension; and a visual inspection for structural damage or modifications. The inspection is mandatory for all used cars being transferred to a new owner in Malaysia.
The source article notes that Carro’s inspection is performed by certified technicians at authorised centres. “The MV15 B5 inspection is fully compliant with JPJ requirements and is accepted for all ownership transfer applications,” the article adds.
Is the Carro MV15 B5 Inspection Accepted by JPJ?
Yes, the Carro MV15 B5 inspection is accepted by JPJ for ownership transfer purposes. Carro’s inspection centres are authorised to issue the MV15 B5 certificate, which is the same document required by JPJ when processing a change of ownership. The certificate is valid for 30 days from the date of inspection.
In Malaysia, only Puspakom and a few authorised private operators can conduct B5 inspections. Carro’s service is one such private option. “Carro’s MV15 B5 inspection certificate is recognised by JPJ and can be used directly for the transfer of vehicle ownership,” the source confirms.
Who Is This For in Malaysia?
This service is ideal for Malaysian car sellers and buyers who want a convenient, digital-first alternative to queuing at Puspakom. It is especially useful for urban dwellers in the Klang Valley, Penang, and Johor Bahru where Carro has inspection centres. The service saves time and reduces paperwork, as the certificate is uploaded directly to the JPJ system. It is not suitable for vehicles requiring other inspection types (e.g., B7 for modified cars or B1 for imported vehicles).
For comparison, a standard Puspakom B5 inspection costs approximately RM 100–RM 120 and requires a physical visit. Carro’s service is priced slightly higher but offers online booking and potentially faster slots. The source article did not provide a direct price comparison.
Common Questions
Can I book the MV15 B5 inspection if I am not a Carro customer?
Yes, the service is open to all Malaysian car owners, not just those buying or selling through Carro. You only need to create a free Carro account to book the inspection.
How long does the inspection take at the centre?
The physical inspection typically takes 20–30 minutes. Carro recommends arriving 10 minutes early. The certificate is issued on the spot and uploaded to JPJ within 24 hours.
What if my vehicle fails the inspection?
If the vehicle fails, Carro will provide a detailed report of the issues. You can repair the vehicle and rebook a new inspection. The source article does not specify whether a re-inspection fee applies, but standard practice is to pay the full fee again.
