Legal Fee and Stamp Duty Calculator
Estimate legal fees, stamp duty and registration fees for a property purchase. Every figure carries its statutory reference. No sign-up required.
Each line above shows the law it is based on. These are indicative estimates, subject to valuation by the authorities and to any exemption in force on the date of your transaction. They exclude fees for ancillary work. This is not legal advice.
This calculator estimates the full cost of buying property in Malaysia: legal fees under the Solicitors Remuneration Order 2023, service tax, transfer stamp duty and loan agreement stamp duty under the Stamp Act 1949, and land office registration fees.
Every line of the result shows the law it is based on, so you can see where each figure comes from. No registration is required and no personal information is collected.
What this calculator does not cover
The figures are indicative estimates. They do not account for the actual valuation by the Valuation and Property Services Department, which can differ from the purchase price. They also exclude fees for ancillary work such as an application for State Authority consent, replacement of a lost title, or an estate matter that has to be resolved first.
For an exact breakdown of your own transaction, contact us with the details of the property and your financing.
