What to know about Langkawi

Before you buy
Resale demand is thinner than on the mainland and many buyers want holiday use. Check rental rules in the building and the RM1 million minimum for foreign buyers.
Foreign buyers
The Kedah rules that apply in Langkawi
Minimum price: RM1 million (Bar circular)
The Malaysian Bar’s December 2024 circular lists Kedah’s minimum for foreign buyers of residential, commercial and industrial property as RM1 million.
Mainland figure: sources differ
PropertyGuru, iProperty, ASCO and Low & Partners guides (2023–2026) list RM600,000 for mainland Kedah and RM1 million for Langkawi. A copy of the state guideline in circulation gives RM1 million per unit. Confirm the figure that applies on the day with your lawyer.
Langkawi: RM1 million
Every current guide checked, and the Bar circular, give RM1 million for Langkawi. Older material quoting RM500,000 is out of date. Langkawi has no separate foreign-buyer authority: the same Kedah state consent applies.
