Goods and Services Tax (GST)
|
Goods and Services Tax (GST) which is also known as VAT or the value added tax in many countries is a multi-stage consumption tax on goods and services. Malaysia is implementing GST since 1st April 2015 and that will cause indirect impact on local business which includes inflation and new compliance requirement. |
|
GST is a broad based consumption tax covering all sectors of the economy i.e all goods and services made in Malaysia including imports except specific goods and services which are categorized under zero rated supply and exempt supply orders as determined by the Minister of Finance and published in the Gazette. |
|
GST can only be levied and charged if the business is registered under GST. A business is not liable to be registered if its annual turnover of taxable supplies does not reach the prescribed threshold (e.g. RM500,000 yearly). Therefore, such businesses cannot charge and collect GST on the supply of goods and services made to their customers. Nevertheless, businesses can apply to be registered voluntarily. |
|

|
-
Registration of GST account with Royal Malaysian Customs Department (Jabatan Kastam Diraja Malaysia);

The preparation and submission of all forms and returns on a timely basis;
-
