Berikutan pertukaran alamat, nota penghantaran mempunyai masa ketibaan baharu.

Berikutan means following, as a result of, or in connection with.

In this sentence, Berikutan pertukaran alamat means something like:

• Following the change of address
• As a result of the address change

So it sets up the reason or background for what comes next.

It is fairly formal in tone. In less formal Malay, people might also use expressions like selepas (after) or disebabkan (because of), depending on the exact meaning.

Tukar is a verb: to change.

Pertukaran is a noun formed from tukar. It means:

• a change
• an exchange
• the act/process of changing

So:

• tukar alamat = change the address / to change address
• pertukaran alamat = a change of address / the address change

In this sentence, Malay needs a noun phrase after berikutan, so pertukaran alamat fits naturally.

Yes, in this sentence alamat most naturally means address.

Malay alamat can sometimes have other meanings in different contexts, but for logistics, deliveries, and shipping, it normally means a postal or delivery address.

So pertukaran alamat is a very standard way to say change of address.

Nota penghantaran literally means delivery note.

Breakdown:

• nota = note
• penghantaran = delivery / dispatch / shipment

So nota penghantaran is the document or record connected with a delivery.

Depending on context, English might translate it as:

• delivery note
• shipping note
• dispatch note

But delivery note is the most straightforward translation.

Hantar is the verb to send or to deliver.

Penghantaran is the noun form, meaning:

• delivery
• sending
• shipment

So:

• hantar = to deliver
• penghantaran = delivery

Malay often uses noun forms like this in formal or written language. That is why nota penghantaran sounds more natural than something based directly on hantar.

Mempunyai means to have or to possess.

So:

• nota penghantaran mempunyai masa ketibaan baharu = the delivery note has a new arrival time

You could often replace mempunyai with ada in less formal Malay:

• nota penghantaran ada masa ketibaan baharu

That would still be understandable, but mempunyai sounds more formal, official, or written. Since the whole sentence is fairly formal, mempunyai matches the style.

Because tiba is a verb meaning to arrive, while ketibaan is a noun meaning arrival.

So:

• tiba = arrive
• ketibaan = arrival

And:

• masa ketibaan = arrival time

This is a common pattern in Malay: a verb gets turned into a noun so it can fit into a noun phrase.

Ketibaan comes from the root tiba.

With the ke-...-an pattern, Malay often forms abstract nouns or event nouns. Here:

• tiba = arrive
• ketibaan = arrival

So masa ketibaan literally means time of arrival.

This is similar to how English turns a verb into a noun:

• arrive → arrival

In Malay, adjectives usually come after the noun they describe.

So:

• masa ketibaan baharu = new arrival time
  • masa ketibaan = arrival time
  • baharu = new

This is normal Malay word order.

Compare:

• rumah besar = big house
• kereta baharu = new car
• masa ketibaan baharu = new arrival time

Both baharu and baru can mean new.

In modern usage:

• baru is more common in everyday language
• baharu often sounds a bit more formal or careful in writing

So in a formal sentence like this, baharu fits well.

In many contexts, you could also say:

• masa ketibaan baru

and people would understand it perfectly.

Yes. The structure is quite normal, especially in formal written Malay.

It works like this:

• Berikutan pertukaran alamat, = a fronted introductory phrase meaning following the address change
• nota penghantaran = the subject
• mempunyai = the verb
• masa ketibaan baharu = the object/complement

So the sentence is essentially:

Following the address change, the delivery note has a new arrival time.

This kind of fronted phrase before the main clause is very common in formal Malay.

It can do both, and that is important here.

Berikutan can suggest:

• after/following in time
• as a result of in cause

In this sentence, it likely carries both ideas at once:

• first, the address was changed
• then, because of that, the delivery note now has a new arrival time

So a natural understanding is not just after the address change, but also because of the address change.

It is understandable and grammatically fine, but it sounds quite formal and administrative.

A more conversational version might be something like:

• Selepas alamat ditukar, nota penghantaran ada masa ketibaan yang baharu.
• Disebabkan pertukaran alamat, masa ketibaan pada nota penghantaran telah berubah.

The original sentence sounds like something you might see in:

• a logistics update
• a shipping system
• a customer-service notification
• an official written message

So yes, it is natural in a formal context, even if not very conversational.
