Planning a shopping day at Johor Premium Outlets (JPO)? Good news — getting there is surprisingly easy and affordable via bus. Located in Kulai, around 30km from JB Sentral, JPO is home to more than 150 international and local brands offering discounts of up to 65% year-round.
If you’re crossing the border from Singapore, Causeway Link’s dedicated JPO buses provide a fuss-free way to get straight to the outlet mall without needing to transfer at JB Sentral.
Which bus should you take?
There are three Causeway Link routes that serve Johor Premium Outlets:
| Route | From | To |
| JPO1 | JB Sentral | JPO |
| JPO2 | CIQ 1st Link (Woodlands side) | JPO |
| JPO3 | CIQ 2nd Link (Tuas side) | JPO |
For travellers coming from Singapore, the direct JPO2 and JPO3 services are the most convenient. JPO2 is for those entering Malaysia via Woodlands Checkpoint (CIQ 1st Link), while JPO3 is for those entering via Tuas Checkpoint (CIQ 2nd Link).
Compared to JPO1, these routes have fewer stops, making the journey much quicker.
Bus fares
- JPO2: RM4.50 one way (~S$1.41)
- JPO3: RM6 one way (~S$1.88)
Exchange rate: RM1 ≈ S$0.31 (June 2026).

How to take the JPO bus from Singapore
Step 1: Make your way to Woodlands or Tuas Checkpoint
Unlike the popular CW1, CW2 and CW5 buses that depart from places like Kranji or Bugis, JPO2 and JPO3 only start from the Malaysian checkpoints. Cross via Woodlands Checkpoint if you’re taking JPO2. Enter through Tuas Checkpoint if you’re taking JPO3.
Step 2: Follow the yellow Causeway Link signs
After clearing immigration, head towards the bus bays and look for the familiar yellow Causeway Link signs. Board the CW bus that takes passengers across to the Johor customs complex.
Step 3: Pay for your ride
You can pay using ManjaLink card, Visa debit card, Visa credit card or cash. If paying with cash, remember to keep your ticket. You’ll need it later for the second leg of the journey.
Step 4: Clear Malaysian immigration
Once you arrive at the Johor customs complex, alight and complete immigration clearance.
Step 5: Board the JPO2 or JPO3 bus again
After clearing customs, look for the designated boarding area:
- JPO2: Boarding Bay 24 at CIQ 1st Link
- JPO3: CIQ 2nd Link bus bay
No extra payment is required. Just tap the same card you used earlier or show your paper ticket to continue your journey.
From there, it’s a comfortable ride straight to Johor Premium Outlets.
Facilities at the JPO bus terminal
The open-air sheltered terminal sits within the Johor Premium Outlets compound, making it easy to hop on and off the bus. Nearby facilities include sheltered waiting areas, convenience stores, JPO Information Centre, washrooms, food court, cafes and restaurants inside the mall.
Check bus arrival times with the LUGO app
For added convenience, Causeway Link bus information is available on the LUGO app. The app lets commuters view estimated bus arrival times, check estimated fares, and top up ManjaLink cards online.
LUGO is available on both Android and iOS.
A fuss-free way to reach Johor Premium Outlets
The JPO2 and JPO3 buses offer one of the easiest and cheapest ways to get from Singapore to Johor Premium Outlets. With direct routes from both Woodlands and Tuas checkpoints, all that’s left to do is shop till you drop — and maybe leave some luggage space for the trip home.
