1. Tenancy Agreement Stamp Duty (NEW)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
$\"Stamp$ <\/figure>\n\n\n\n
When it comes to rental properties, stamp duty is calculated based on the monthly rental and the duration of the tenancy. As of January 1, 2025<\/strong>, the tenancy agreement stamp duty increased in 2025. The new rates for stamp duty on rental agreements are as follows:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Rental Period<\/strong><\/td> Stamp Duty<\/strong><\/td><\/tr>
Not exceeding 1 year<\/td> RM1.00<\/td><\/tr>
Exceeding 1 year but not exceeding 3 years<\/td> RM3.00<\/td><\/tr>
Exceeding 3 years but not exceeding 5 years<\/td> RM5.00<\/td><\/tr>
Exceeding 5 years or for an indefinite period<\/td> RM7.00<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
Source: Finance Act 2024<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
Stamp duty is calculated based on every RM250.00<\/strong> or part thereof, depending on the average rent and other considerations for the entire year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
a. Example Calculation (Based on old calculation):<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
Let’s say you’re renting a property for RM1,800<\/strong> per month for 3 years<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n
Calculate Annual Rent:<\/strong> RM1,800 x 12 months = RM21,600<\/li>\n\n\n\n
Subtract the Exemption Threshold (if applicable):<\/strong> RM21,600 – RM2,400 = RM19,200 (The RM2,400 threshold is no longer applicable as of January 1, 2025)<\/li>\n\n\n\n
Divide by RM250 and Round Up:<\/strong> RM21,600 ÷ RM250 = 86.4, rounded up to 87<\/li>\n\n\n\n
Multiply by the Applicable Rate (RM3 for 3-year tenancy, based on old rates):<\/strong> 87 x RM3 = RM261<\/li>\n\n\n\n
Add Stamp Duty for Tenant’s Copy:<\/strong> RM261 + RM10 = RM271<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
b. Important Note<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
The tenant is responsible for paying the stamp duty on the tenancy agreement, not the landlord.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
2. Deadlines and Penalties for Late Stamping (NEW)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
$\"Deadlines$ <\/figure>\n\n\n\n
It’s crucial to pay stamp duty within the stipulated timeframe to avoid penalties.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n
Instruments executed within Malaysia:<\/strong> Must be stamped within 30 days of execution.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
Instruments executed outside Malaysia:<\/strong> Must be stamped within 30 days after it has been first received in Malaysia.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

3. Understanding Stamp Duty<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
$\"Understanding$ <\/figure>\n\n\n\n
Stamp duty is a tax levied on legal documents, specifically those related to the purchase or transfer of real estate, as well as tenancy, etc. in Malaysia. It’s governed by the Stamp Act 1949<\/strong> and overseen by the Lembaga Hasil Dalam Negeri Malaysia (LHDN<\/strong>), the Inland Revenue Board of Malaysia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Think of it as a mandatory fee that validates your property-related documents, making them legally binding and admissible in court. It is not merely a formality but a cornerstone of secure and legal property transactions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
4. Why Should You Care About Stamp Duty?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
$\"Why$ <\/figure>\n\n\n\n
Understanding stamp duty is not just about ticking a legal box but making informed decisions. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
No matter you’re a first-time homebuyer, a seasoned investor, or simply transferring property to a loved one, knowing the ins and outs of stamp duty can save you significant sums of money and prevent legal headaches down the road. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
It directly impacts your financial planning<\/strong> and ensures a smooth, legally sound property transaction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
5. The Different Shades of Stamp Duty: Ad Valorem and Fixed Duties<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
In Malaysia, stamp duty comes in two primary forms:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n
Ad Valorem Duty:<\/strong> This is the most common type for property transactions. The amount payable is calculated as a percentage of the property’s value or the consideration stipulated in the instrument, whichever is higher. The higher the property value, the higher the stamp duty, although there are some exemptions that we will discuss later.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
Fixed Duty:<\/strong> This type of duty applies a predetermined amount, regardless of the property’s value. It’s typically levied on specific legal documents, such as certain types of agreements, as outlined in the First Schedule of the Stamp Act 1949.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
6. Who Foots the Bill? Determining Liability for Stamp Duty<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
The responsibility for paying stamp duty isn’t arbitrary. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Third Schedule of the Stamp Act 1949 clearly outlines who is liable for specific instruments. In most property transactions, the buyer is responsible<\/strong> for paying the stamp duty on the instrument of transfer (MOT) and SPA.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The borrower is responsible <\/strong>for paying the stamp duty on the loan agreement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
7. Stamp Duty Rates on Instruments of Transfer in Malaysia (2025)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
The cost of stamp duty on the transfer of property, excluding shares, stock, or marketable securities, depends on whether the buyer is a Malaysian citizen\/permanent resident or a foreigner\/foreign company.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
a. For Malaysian Citizens and Permanent Residents:<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
Price Tier<\/strong><\/td> Stamp Duty Rate<\/strong><\/td><\/tr>
First RM100,000<\/td> 1%<\/td><\/tr>
RM100,001 to RM500,000<\/td> 2%<\/td><\/tr>
RM500,001 to RM1,000,000<\/td> 3%<\/td><\/tr>
Above RM1,000,000<\/td> 4%<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

c. Example Calculation<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
Let’s say you’re a Malaysian citizen buying a property for RM600,000<\/strong>. Here’s how the stamp duty is calculated:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n
First RM100,000: RM100,000 x 1% = RM1,000<\/li>\n\n\n\n
Next RM400,000: RM400,000 x 2% = RM8,000<\/li>\n\n\n\n
Remaining RM100,000: RM100,000 x 3% = RM3,000<\/li>\n\n\n\n
Total Stamp Duty:<\/strong> RM1,000 + RM8,000 + RM3,000 = RM12,000<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
8. Stamp Duty on Loan Agreements<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
$\"Stamp$ <\/figure>\n\n\n\n
When you take out a loan to finance your property purchase, the loan agreement is also subject to stamp duty.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
a. Standard Rate<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
Generally, a flat rate of 0.5%<\/strong> of the total loan amount applies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
b. Reduced Rate<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
For specific Malaysian Ringgit loan agreements or instruments without security and repayable on demand or in a single bullet repayment, a reduced rate of 0.1%<\/strong> may apply.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
c. Example Calculation<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
If you take out a loan of RM540,000<\/strong> (90% of the RM600,000 property), the stamp duty on the loan agreement would be:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
RM540,000 x 0.5% = RM2,700<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
9. Stamp Duty Exemptions and Remissions in Malaysia<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Fortunately, the Malaysian government offers several exemptions and remissions to ease the financial burden of stamp duty, particularly for first-time homebuyers and specific property transfers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
