Singapore's Land Transport Authority (LTA) has officially announced on its website that from October 1, Singapore's toll charges for all vehicles, except motorcycles, leaving Singapore through the Causeway will be increased to match the new increase on the Malaysian side.
Also, a new matching Causeway toll will also be implemented for all vehicles, except motorcycles, entering Singapore. For foreign-registered cars, Singapore's Causeway entry toll (i.e. entering Singapore from Johor) will be recorded in the LTA's toll system and displayed to motorists upon entry into Singapore.
Payment will be deducted only upon leaving Singapore (whether through the Causeway or Second Link), together with the exit toll, Vehicle Entry Permit (VEP) fee and Electronic Road Pricing (ERP) charges, if any. This will be the same as the existing practice for the Second Link entry toll, for which there are no changes to toll charges.
For all other vehicles that do not pay VEP fees, i.e. all Singapore-registered vehicles and foreign-registered goods vehicles, buses and taxis, they will pay their Causeway entry toll upon entry into Singapore and their exit toll upon leaving Singapore. This will again be the same as the existing practice for the Second Link tolls.
The LTA says that Singapore will follow suit should Malaysia reduce or do away with the toll charges.
