During his tenure, he served two times as member of EXCO, from May 2018 to March 2020 for the first time under PH and again from March 2020 to October 2021 for the second time under BN-PN administrations.
On 5 October 2021, BERSATU membership of Noor Effandi was automatically dropped for blatantly stating his loss of support for the BN state government under Chief Minister Sulaiman Md Ali. He and three other MLAs also withdrew support for the Malacca state government, triggering the state assembly dissolution and subsequent snap 2021 Malacca state election. His attempt to return to PH and contest in the state election under its banner was rejected by the coalition, he decided not to defend the seat and remain as an Independent after his twice defections. On 19 May 2022, he joins Amanah. He left Amanah in 2024.
BERSATU reinstated his membership in early 2024.
