Digital Minister Gobind Singh Deo announced today that the MyGOV Malaysia mobile app will officially launch in July 2025.
He explained that the app is part of the government’s broader Government Technology (GovTech) initiative, designed to provide Malaysians with streamlined access to multiple government agencies through a single digital gateway.
“This is a key step in our mission to transform Malaysia into a fully digital nation,” Gobind said in a statement.
“It makes sense to have a centralised platform where Malaysians can engage with various government services seamlessly.”
At launch, the MyGOV Malaysia app will offer access to seven core services:
- Travel (passport-related matters)
- Registration (birth certificates and citizenship)
- Driving (road tax and driving licences)
- Healthcare (appointments and medical records)
- Summons (checking and payment)
- Housing (land tax and assessment rates)
- Rahmah Cash Aid (Sumbangan Tunai Rahmah)
More features and services are expected to be introduced in phases.
Gobind also confirmed that MyGOV Malaysia will be integrated with MyDigital ID, enabling users to securely verify their identity and access services via a single sign-on system.
The mobile app will allow Malaysians to conduct transactions and access government services directly from their phones.
As of June 23, Gobind reported that 2,604,160 Malaysians have registered for MyDigital ID.
The single sign-on feature will initially connect users to 34 key government systems, with plans to expand further.
Gobind also noted that the development of MyGOV Malaysia involves strategic partnerships with the private sector, including telecommunication providers and banks.
In a report by Bernama, Senior Lecturer in Computer Science at the Faculty of Computer and Mathematical Sciences, UiTM Seremban Campus, Associate Professor Dr Siti Salwa Salleh, stated that the launch of MyGOV Malaysia is a timely step in advancing the government’s digital transformation agenda, aimed at enhancing service efficiency.
“This is an improvement in public access, as people can obtain information and services regardless of time and location,” she told Bernama.
She said the application will simplify interactions with government agencies by removing the need for in-person visits, thus streamlining processes and reducing bureaucracy.
Ultimately, the app aims to provide users with faster, safer, and more convenient access to government services, while also helping the government reduce operational costs at Urban Transformation Centres (UTCs) and enhance productivity through better data-driven decisions.
For now, the app is only accessible to civil servants. Stay tuned for announcements on public access!
