The Penang government has gazetted new land tax rates effective from Jan 1, 2026, involving nearly 370,000 land titles across the state, said Chief Minister Chow Kon Yeow.

Chow said the new land tax rate was approved by the National Land Council in 2024 and that the review would only be conducted every 10 years, with the new rate remaining unchanged without any increase during that period until a new review is carried out.
