Need more BUDI95 quota? Here’s how to apply
Starting in April, the BUDI95 subsidy quota has been reduced from 300 litres to 200 litres per month to reduce the national fiscal burden caused by surging global oil prices.
The decision was made after taking into account that approximately 90% of Malaysians only use an average of 100 litres of fuel per month.
However, not many people are pleased with the change. Those who cannot work from home (WFH) asked for the 300-litre quota to be reinstated. Some had to commute over 100km a day just to get to work.
But, there might be a solution.
Although the government has set a 200-litre quota for BUDI95, the public can apply to have their personal quota increased.
Here’s how to apply for a higher personal BUDI95 quota

You will be asked to fill in your personal information, including your income tax number, bank details, and usage category. You’ll also need to provide a reason why you need to increase your BUDI95 quota.
4. Verify and submit your application
After filling out the form, submit your application by clicking the ‘’Next’’ button. You’ll be asked to verify with your Identity Card (MyKad) number and prompted to tick the verification box to submit your application.
It’s important to note that you can be convicted and sentenced to a fine or imprisonment for up to three years if you provide false information.
By agreeing to submit your application, you’re also permitting the household information and income to be reviewed by an agency appointed by the Ministry of Finance to determine eligibility.
Keep in mind that applying for a higher personal BUDI95 quota doesn’t mean an increase will be granted.
