(Tax Update) Maximizing Tax Incentive with Investment Tax Allowance

At KTP, we understand the complexities that manufacturers face, particularly in navigating the realm of tax incentives. A significant opportunity currently available is the Investment Tax Allowance (ITA) which can substantially benefit companies involved with promoted products in the manufacturing sector.

Here’s why you should consider this incentive for your business growth and innovation strategies.

What is the Investment Tax Allowance (ITA)?

The ITA offers a lucrative tax incentive for manufacturers that produce specific promoted products in Malaysia. This allowance is essentially a tax deduction from the qualifying capital expenditure incurred by businesses, aiming to boost domestic manufacturing capabilities and technological advancements.

Benefits of the Investment Tax Allowance

Attractive Allowance Rates

Businesses can claim an allowance of up to 100% on their qualifying capital expenditure. This makes a significant impact on reducing the overall taxable income, thus lowering tax liabilities and enhancing cash flow.

Wide Range of Promoted Products

The ITA covers a diverse array of manufacturing activities and products, from high-tech electronics to resource-based manufacturing such as palm oil biomass and rubber. This inclusivity ensures many sectors can benefit from the allowance.

Enhanced Competitiveness

By reducing tax burdens, companies can reinvest savings into further innovation, quality improvement, or expansion, enhancing their competitive edge both locally and globally.

Support for High Technology and Small Scale Companies

Special provisions under the ITA support high technology and small scale companies, encouraging startups and SMEs to invest in innovative and high-value manufacturing.

How to Qualify for the Investment Tax Allowance

To be eligible, companies must engage in the manufacture of promoted products as determined by the Ministry of International Trade and Industry in concurrence with the Ministry of Finance. Companies must also meet specific criteria and conditions outlined by the Malaysian Investment Development Authority (MIDA).

Applying for the Investment Tax Allowance

Applications must be submitted in writing to MIDA, with all necessary documentation and adherence to the outlined guidelines.

Approval from MIDA not only secures the tax incentive but also affirms the strategic importance of your business operations within the sector.
