Circular No 170/2018
Dated 12 July 2018
To Members of the Malaysian Bar
Launch of the Digital Franking System 2.0 by LHDNM
Lembaga Hasil Dalam Negeri Malaysia (“LHDNM”) has notified us, in its letter dated 12 June 2018, that it will launch the Digital Franking System 2.0 in various phases throughout Malaysia.
The launch dates are listed as per item 6 of the letter, a copy of which is attached for your reference.
With Digital Franking System 2.0, users will key in information online into the system instead of completing forms manually. This can be done through a personal computer, a mobile device (available on both Android and iOS platforms), and at the self-service counter at the stamp office. Please note that the self-service counter only caters for individual stamp duty payers.
Members are advised to peruse the information and guidelines in LHDNM’s letter.
Members are encouraged to key in the data for the application for stamping at their own law firm office and print the QR code, before going to the stamp office for stamping purposes.
The other processes in the stamping cycle — namely the checking process, the payment process and the actual stamping process — remain unchanged.
Should you have any enquiries, please contact LHDNM’s designated officers at the telephone numbers and/or email addresses stated in the letter.
Thank you.
Roger Tan
Chairperson
Conveyancing Practice Committee
