How to Pay DBKL Parking Saman

dbkl logo

Recently I got a DBKL traffic compound for not displaying a parking ticket when I parked my car during office hours in Kuala Lumpur.

At first I tried not to feel too bad about it, but I took a closer look at the DBKL parking saman and it said I had to pay RM100. My heart sank.

I searched online regarding where to pay DBKL Summon, Rayuan Kompaun DBKL and DBKL Saman Discount but I couldn’t find any information.

Here’s what I learned, and I hope to share with the rest of you who may be looking for the same information.

To Pay Or Not to Pay

The first question to ask yourself is, do you want to pay or just ignore the DBKL Kompaun?

Some people say that they’ve never paid a single saman because no action can be taken against them.

On the other hand, some people cannot sleep if they have something like that pending.

From what I understand, failure to settle the compound will mean DBKL can take legal action against you.

So the answer to this question is yes you should pay.

But I guess if you don’t pay, there isn’t much that could happen to you or your car. Unless you have some future dealings with DBKL (like if your car got towed or something).

You might ask, “if I don’t want to pay DBKL saman, can I renew my road tax?” Yes, for now the two systems are not linked so you are not barred from renewing your road tax.

How Much to Pay

If you settle the saman quickly (I think within 14 days) you will only have to pay half the price, which is RM50.

You don’t need to go to any counter rayuan or go the DBKL head office in Jalan Raja Laut. At first I was confused by this web page.

For parking offenses, any branch will do. The DBKL head office is maybe for more serious offense or non-parking related offense.

Where to Settle DBKL Compound

You can pay the DBKL saman at any DBKL branch.

Check out www.dbkl.gov.my for the DBKL branch office address and contact numbers.

They are open Mon – Fri (8am to 5pm) and every 2nd, 4th and 5th Saturday (8am to 1pm).

There used to be an option to pay online at MyEG, but when I wrote this the service was down for maintenance.

My Experience

The next day, I had to take time off work due to tyre puncture (talk about bad fortune happening to my car) so after fixing the tyre I went over to TTDI branch.

After making a few rounds I found a car park. I saw the DBKL officer prowling so I paid for a parking ticket this time and walked to the DBKL branch.

There wasn’t anybody else there so I just walked to the counter and gave the makcik my DBKL kompaun.

She took a look at it, typed something in the computer and I saw on the display that I needed to pay RM50.

I forked out the cash, she printed a receipt and that’s it. I didn’t even say a word and all done in less than a minute.

    Helpful post. :) I got a parking summons when I went to PD for a holiday and forgot to display the parking ticket. It was RM30 and I immediately settled it for RM10. (discount for settlement within 7 days). It cost me the same as a book of parking tickets would have cost. :)

    Adino: Once I got parking summons in Ipoh, fortunately my father in law settled it. I remember it cost RM10 or something also.

    i got parking summon from dbkl which never said how much is it.. when i went to pay it on the same day, they said i got to pay rm100 with no discount. it’s not fair

    Adino: That’s strange. Has anyone else here have the same experience? Could there be some new “no-discount” policy from DBKL?

  5. BS

    How about compounds issued by Polis Diraja Malaysia (That’s what it says at the very top of the slip I got)? Are the procedures the same?

    Adino: For PDRM summons, I think you can pay online. Just google ‘pay saman online’, I think MyEG is one of the sites. Another option is to pay at the traffic police branch at certain police stations.

    I got the saman at Jln Pinang on Friday Feb 8 which I parked less than 15minutes to collect my medications at wisma hla. How much the damages if I pay within 14 days

    Adino: Sorry to hear about it, but I’m not sure how about the compound amount. Is it indicated on the ticket?

    Adino: Taman Tun DBKL payment counter address (it’s near the market) :
    No. 6, Jalan Wan Kadir 1,
    Taman Tun Dr. Ismail,
    60000 Kuala Lumpur.
