Common questions about industrial property in Batu, answered with live data from our listings.
Industrial rents vary widely with location (Klang Valley vs. Northern/Southern corridors), built-up area, ceiling height, power capacity (single- vs. 3-phase), dock-levellers, overhead cranes, road access for trailers, and lease tenure. Larger units typically negotiate lower per-sqft rates; build-to-suit and sale-and-leaseback structures price differently again. Always compare multiple comparable units before signing.
Service tax on rental and leasing services for commercial and industrial properties is 6% (reduced from 8% effective 1 January 2026). It is charged on top of the monthly rental and collected by the landlord for remittance to Customs. The annual sales threshold for SME exemption was raised to MYR 1.5M, and newly-registered SMEs receive a 1-year grace period from SST on rental.
Standard factory leases run 2–3 years with an option to renew. Some landlords offer 1-year terms for flexibility. Industrial leases often include a 2-month security deposit plus 1-month advance rent.
Key checks: electrical capacity (3-phase power), water supply, floor loading capacity, ceiling height (minimum 6m for most manufacturing), fire safety compliance, truck access and loading bay availability, and zoning approval for your intended industrial activity.
