The Tennis Integrity Unit said Lindahl plotted to throw a match at a minor Australian tournament in 2013.
Two other Australian players, Brandon Walkin and Isaac Frost, were also disciplined over the incident.
It comes days after Australian Open junior champion Oliver Anderson was charged with match-fixing.
Last year, a joint BBC/Buzzfeed investigation alleged the TIU failed to act on suspicions that 16 top-50 ranked players have been involved in match-fixing.
Lindahl, 28, achieved a career-high ranking of 187 in singles before retiring in 2013.
The TIU, which is responsible for policing tennis, said the offence happened at the Australian F6 Tournament in Toowoomba, Queensland.
"He was found guilty of charges of contriving or attempting to contrive the outcome of an event, and failing to co-operate with a TIU investigation," it said in a statement.
The penalty means Lindahl will not be able to resume his international playing career or attend official tennis events for seven years, the TIU said.
He had already been fined A$1,000 by a court in New South Wales last year.
Walkin, 22, was handed a six-month suspension for "passing a corrupt proposal to another party" on behalf of Lindahl.
But the 1,066-ranked player is free to compete after his penalty was suspended for six months, subject to further breaches.
Frost, 28 and ranked 1,515, refused to hand over his mobile phone during the investigation. He will not be further penalised after serving a provisional suspension between October 2013 and September 2014.

On Tuesday Mr Obama cancelled planned talks after the firebrand Mr Duterte called him the "son of a whore".
Wednesday's informal meeting took place before an Asean summit gala dinner.
While a Philippine spokesman said he was "very happy" it happened, the US side said they had a "brief discussion" in a pre-meal "hold space" for leaders.
Mr Obama and Mr Duterte are said to have entered the dinner venue separately at the summit in Laos and did not interact with each other during the event, which lasted one hour and 20 minutes.
"They were the last people to leave the holding room. I can't say how long they met," Philippine Foreign Secretary Perfecto Yasay, travelling with Mr Duterte, told reporters shortly afterwards.
"I'm very happy that it happened."
A White House official said the pair exchanged "pleasantries" in a "brief discussion" before dinner.
War on drugs
Mr Duterte's outburst came after at a press conference where he told reporters he would not accept Mr Obama raising any concerns about the war on drugs in the Philippines.
"You must be respectful. Do not just throw away questions and statements. Son of a whore, I will curse you in that forum," Mr Duterte said, apparently in reference to the US president.
What else has the controversial Filipino president said?

The  Filipino leader later expressed regret over the remarks, but not before Mr Obama had cancelled a planned meeting.
Mr Duterte won the presidency with his hard-line policy to eradicate drugs and some 2,400 people have died in anti-drug operations since he took office in June.
He had previously urged citizens to shoot to kill drug dealers who resisted arrest, and threatened to "separate" from the UN after it called his war on drugs a crime under international law.
President Duterte, known for his controversial remarks, had previously called US Secretary of State John Kerry "crazy" and referred to Pope Francis as the "son of a whore".
But the president also has staunch support at home for his hardline position on drugs.

It happened at about 20:30 GMT on Saturday at the Antrim Road shop.
Two men wearing hooded tops made a purchase, then one asked the assistant for another item. When she opened the till, one of the men brought out a knife.
He lunged towards the woman, jabbing the knife in her direction. The second man them removed cash from the till.
Both were challenged by a male member of staff as they left and one of the robbers took the knife out again. They then fled on foot.
Neither member of staff was injured, but police said they were left very badly shaken.
Detectives have appealed for witnesses to contact them.
Australian former tennis player Nick Lindahl has been banned for seven years and fined $35,000 (Â£28,000; A$47,700) for match-fixing.
