Syariah Divorce Filing in Kajang and Bangi
Kajang and Bangi cases now go to the Hulu Langat court in Bandar Baru Bangi, not Kajang town.
Where your Kajang or Bangi case is heard
Mahkamah Rendah Syariah Hulu Langat covers Kajang, Bangi and the rest of Hulu Langat district, and it is one of JAKESS’s 12 Mahkamah Rendah Syariah in Selangor.[1] Despite the Kajang connection, the registry itself does not sit in Kajang town today.
It moved to Persiaran Kemajuan, Seksyen 9, Bandar Baru Bangi, in 2015, from its earlier address on Jalan Low Ti Kok in Kajang.[2] If you are searching for a Kajang court address, look for Bangi instead.
One district, two well-known towns
Kajang and Bangi are the two largest towns in Hulu Langat district, and both route to this one court. Someone filing from Kajang and someone filing from Bangi end up at the exact same counter.
That matters if you were told to attend a “Kajang court”, since the building itself has been in Bangi for years now.
Which route fits your Hulu Langat case
A wife facing desertion or failed maintenance can look at fasakh, while a broken taklik promise points to cerai taklik instead. Child maintenance often follows a divorce filed here; see nafkah anak for how that claim works.
Custody questions usually come up too. Read hadhanah for how the court decides, and the Selangor state page for the wider process.
Fast-track at the Bangi registry
The same mutual-consent fast-track process available across Selangor’s Mahkamah Rendah Syariah runs here too. Both spouses need to attend together with complete documents on the day.
Book your appointment for the Bangi address specifically, since an old Kajang listing will send you to the wrong place.
Common questions
Is there a separate Syariah court for Kajang town itself?
No. Kajang town's cases go through Mahkamah Rendah Syariah Hulu Langat, which now sits in Bandar Baru Bangi rather than Kajang itself. If you were expecting a Kajang address, use the Bangi one instead.
Why did the court move from Kajang to Bangi?
JAKESS relocated the registry from Jalan Low Ti Kok in Kajang to Persiaran Kemajuan, Seksyen 9, Bandar Baru Bangi, in 2015. The district it covers, Hulu Langat, did not change, only the building did.
Do Bangi residents file at the same court as Kajang residents?
Yes. Bangi and Kajang both sit within Hulu Langat district, so both are heard by the same Mahkamah Rendah Syariah in Bandar Baru Bangi.
