STR 2027: Do Existing Applicants Need to Update Their Details?

Who needs to update their STR details?

STR 2027 applications opened on 15 October 2026. If you already have an STR record, the useful starting point is that record, rather than a fresh application form.

The official BK-01 [1/2027] form says STR 2026 recipients need to update when their information changes. It also requires an update from recipients who did not update in all three years: 2024, 2025 and 2026. So “nothing has changed” is not enough on its own if your record has been untouched throughout that period.

Check whether the details still describe your household now. A changed address, marital status, job or bank account can leave an old record out of date. You do not need to guess the rules from a forwarded STR 2026 poster.

Use the official update route

Open the official STR portal directly. The STR 2027 update guide documents this route:

1. Select Log Masuk and sign in to MySTR.
2. Open Perubahan Maklumat Permohonan, the application-details update section.
3. Review the relevant fields, make the changes and provide supporting documents where required.
4. Complete verification and select Hantar. Check that the successful-submission message appears.

If you have an existing application but have never registered a MySTR account, the guide directs you to Daftar Pengguna Baru. Registering access to MySTR is different from making a new STR application.

Before submitting, work through this short check:

• Contact details and home address are current.
• Income, employment and marital status are accurate.
• Spouse and children’s details reflect your situation.
• The bank account is active, and supporting documents and waris (next-of-kin) details are correct where relevant.

Some information may be carried over from STR 2026. Read it before pressing Hantar; a pre-filled field still needs checking.

For an offline submission, the BK-01 notes list HASiL offices, HASiL Satelit and UTC. Fax and email submissions are not accepted. Use official HASiL support if your record or submission route is unclear.

Updating details and getting approved are separate

An update puts your current information before HASiL. It does not guarantee STR 2027 eligibility, approval or a payment date. A successful-submission message confirms submission, not approval.

Keep your MySTR password and OTP private. Do not send identity or bank documents to strangers offering to handle the update. Type the official address yourself when checking your record.
