Johor foreign-buyer approval fee: what the “levy” actually is

The state approval fee is separate from federal transfer stamp duty. PTG Johor publishes an application registration fee of RM2,000 per title.

For residential and commercial acquisitions, the published approval fee is 3% with a minimum of RM30,000. For industrial property, the published approval fee is 4% with no stated minimum. Special categories can differ.

PTG Johor’s customer charter says foreign-acquisition applications under RM10 million may receive a decision in about 2–3 weeks from receipt, while cases requiring JPPH valuation may take 1–3 months. Treat this as an official service target, not a transaction guarantee.

Before booking, confirm the property category, foreign eligibility, price threshold, title restrictions and the SPA condition for State Authority consent with the conveyancing lawyer.
