In summary, you’ll have to pay the Prevailing Quota Premium (PQP) for your vehicle category to renew your COE. PQP is the moving average of COE prices in the last 3 months. It varies monthly depending on the COE prices in the bidding exercises conducted in the last 3 months. You can renew your CEO for a period of 5 or 10 years. If you want to renew your vehicle for 5 years, you need to pay 50% of the PQP. However, vehicles under Categories A to D can only renew its COE for 5 years once and when the 5-year renewal period is over, it cannot be renewed and your vehicle would have to be deregistered. Motorcycles fall under Category D. If you’re renewing for 10 years, you’ll have to pay the full price of PQP.
There’s no limit to how many times you can renew your COE in 10-year periods for vehicles with no statutory life spans (i.e Categories A, B, D). Vehicles that have reached the end of their statutory lifespan can no longer renew their COE.
