Once you know your approved amount, planning a realistic budget and choosing the right car becomes so much easier.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>What Is a Loan Pre-Approval?\u00a0<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Find out your eligible loan amount beforehand so you can shop for your next car with absolute confidence. With this pre-approval system, you get to enjoy these amazing perks:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>30-Second Results:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Say goodbye to traditional processes that take two to three days. Get your approval status instantly online.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Zero Risk to Your Credit Score:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Run your preliminary checks with complete peace of mind. This process is guaranteed to leave your personal credit score completely unaffected.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><b>Who Is Eligible to Apply?\u00a0<\/b><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Open to all Malaysian citizens aged 18 and above who hold a physical MyKad.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The identity verification process is quick and seamless via the in-app MyKad scanning and e-KYC (facial recognition) features.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For private sector employees with SOCSO contributions, your income data will be automatically retrieved by the system. Civil servants or applicants without SOCSO contributions will simply need to declare their income manually.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><b>Understanding How Pre-Approval Works\u00a0<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Keep in mind that this pre-approval serves as an initial budget guide and is subject to a few conditions:\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Financing Limits:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> The pre-approval system calculates your financing eligibility with a minimum limit of RM10,000 up to a maximum of RM300,000.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Not an Absolute Approval:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> This pre-approval status isn&#8217;t the final say on your loan. Your actual application will still undergo a comprehensive assessment by the financier.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Risk of Rejection:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Customers still face the possibility of their actual loan application being rejected based on a detailed review of credit records, income levels, age and current financial commitments.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Validity Period:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> The generated pre-approval certificate is only valid for a few weeks. If it expires, you&#8217;ll need to submit a fresh application.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><b>The Cars You Can Choose From\u00a0<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The pre-approved value you receive can be applied to any car available at CARSOME, provided it fits within your budget.
