Tax Update on Withholding Tax
Tax Update on Withholding Tax
1. Withholding Tax on Payment Made to Agents, Dealers, Distributor - Credit Note
On October 21, 2022, the Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) on 2% withholding tax on payment made to agents, dealers, or distributors under Section 107D of the Income Tax Act 1967 was updated by the Inland Revenue Board.
Previously FAQ stated payment by way of credit note is not subject to withholding tax.
Under the latest item A6 of FAQ, IRB clarify that the determining factor on credit note which is subject to withholding tax depends on the substance of payment (not the label on the document itself).
If it is proven that the credit note is a commission payment in the form of cash arising from sales, transactions and schemes carried out by agents, dealers and distributors, then the provision of S107D of the Income Tax Act 1967 shall be applied.
Refer to our past blog posting on withholding tax payments to agents.

tax treatment on advance to director
Loan or Advance to Director by A Company - Tax Impact
On 30 November 2015, IRB issued Public Ruling (PR) No.8/2015 - Loan or advances to director by a company. Generally, this PR has elaborated the tax treatment of:
1. Loan or advances provided to the director by company without interest or with interest rate lower than arm’s length rate; and
2. Company is deemed to receive the interest income from the loan or advances.
Key takeaways:
You will understand: -
1. What is the tax treatment?
2. What are the sources of funding?
3. Treatment for other circumstances.
4. How to determine the deemed interest income?
5. What is the circumstance if a dormant company makes loan or advances to directors?
Summary of learnings:
1. What is the tax treatment?
If the loan or advances to directors was wholly raised from internal funds, then an interest income will deem to be received by the company, and subject to tax under [Section 140B of Income Tax Act (ITA)].
However, no tax will be charged on the loan or advances which are raised from external funds.
2. What are the sources of funding?
3 categories of funds:
(i) Internal
Mainly arise from the injection of capital, retained earnings, and reserves.
(ii) External
Loan from bank or third parties.
(iii) Mixed (Internal + External)
Only interest income generated from internal funds will be subject to tax. For external funds, all the supporting and proof must be kept properly.
Interest restriction [Subsection 33(2) of ITA] may come in if part of the loan is from external funds used for investment purposes.
3. Treatment for other circumstances
(i) If the loan or advances from external funds to directors who are also employees of a company, a perquisite (interest expense incurred from the loan facility) needs to be reported as part of the employee’s gross income under [paragraph 13(1)(a) of
the ITA].
(ii) For a partnership, if the director is also a partner of the company, the loan or advances provided will also be subject to Section 140B of ITA, considering partnership is not a separate legal entity from the business owner.
4. How to determine the deemed interest income?
(i) Interest-free loan
Interest will be computed based on prescribed formula in subsection 140B (2) of ITA, using Average Lending Rate (ALR) published by Bank Negara Malaysia (BNM).
(ii) With interest
Interest will be determined by comparing the interest rate charged by the company and the rate computed from the prescribed formula.
Whichever lower will be disregarded, while the higher amount will be reported as interest income of the company.
5. What is the circumstance if a dormant company makes loan or advances to directors?
The company will be treated as an active company, whose business will be deemed to commence operations under subsection 21A (8) of the ITA. The loan or advances granted will still be subject to Section 140B of ITA.

First financial period
How do I find my financial year end if I incorporate a Sdn Bhd on 18/10/22?
“The beginning is the most important part of the work” – Plato
The same thing can be applied when 𝐝𝐞𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐦𝐢𝐧𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐚 𝐧𝐞𝐰𝐥𝐲 𝐢𝐧𝐜𝐨𝐫𝐩𝐨𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐝 𝐒𝐞𝐧𝐝𝐢𝐫𝐢𝐚𝐧 𝐁𝐞𝐫𝐡𝐚𝐝 (𝐑𝐞𝐟𝐞𝐫 𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐞𝐢𝐧 𝐚𝐬 “𝐒𝐁”) 𝐟𝐢𝐫𝐬𝐭 𝐟𝐢𝐧𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐢𝐚𝐥 𝐲𝐞𝐚𝐫 𝐞𝐧𝐝.
As simple as it sounds, there is more to it than meets the eye. There are various compliance standards that the Company need to adhere to as well as multiple factors to be taken into consideration when making the financial decision on fixing the SB first financial year-end.
Firstly, the Company is required to comply with Section 248 of the Companies Act 2016 (refer herein as “CA 2016”)
Every SB is obligated to fix its financial year end (refer herein as “FYE”) within 18 months from the date of its incorporation.
Indeed,18 months may sound like a lot, but you may not want to max out the time frame given. The company may want to consider including a time buffer in their planning for unforeseen circumstances.
𝑰𝒔 𝒕𝒉𝒂𝒕 𝒊𝒕? 𝑫𝒐𝒆𝒔 𝒕𝒉𝒂𝒕 𝒎𝒆𝒂𝒏 𝒘𝒆 𝒄𝒂𝒏 𝒇𝒊𝒙 𝒐𝒖𝒓 𝒇𝒊𝒏𝒂𝒏𝒄𝒊𝒂𝒍 𝒚𝒆𝒂𝒓 𝒆𝒏𝒅 𝒂𝒕 𝒂𝒏𝒚 𝑭𝒀𝑬 𝒘𝒆 𝒅𝒆𝒔𝒊𝒓𝒆𝒅 𝒂𝒔 𝒍𝒐𝒏𝒈 𝒂𝒔 𝒘𝒆 𝒄𝒐𝒎𝒑𝒍𝒚 𝒕𝒐 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝒂𝒃𝒐𝒗𝒆?
𝑩𝒆𝒇𝒐𝒓𝒆 𝒚𝒐𝒖 𝒋𝒖𝒎𝒑 𝒊𝒏𝒕𝒐 𝒚𝒐𝒖𝒓 𝒅𝒆𝒔𝒊𝒓𝒆 𝑭𝒀𝑬, 𝒍𝒐𝒐𝒌 𝒄𝒍𝒐𝒔𝒆𝒍𝒚 𝒇𝒐𝒓 𝒂𝒅𝒅𝒊𝒕𝒊𝒐𝒏𝒂𝒍 𝒄𝒐𝒎𝒑𝒍𝒊𝒂𝒏𝒄𝒆 𝒂𝒔 𝒃𝒆𝒍𝒐𝒘:
(𝐢) 𝐂𝐨𝐦𝐩𝐥𝐢𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐞 𝐭𝐨 𝐒𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 247 of 𝐂𝐀 2016
(a) If the SB becomes a subsidiary of any holding company that is incorporated in Malaysia within two years from its incorporation date, the FYE should be synchronized with the FYE of the holding company.
(b) Having said that, a holding company may apply in writing to the Registrar under Section 247(3) of CA 2016 if the holding company has good reason for the subsidiary to continue having a different financial year.
(c) Although the SB may initially fix its FYE differently compared to its holding company and change it on a later date (within two years of its incorporation date), but why go through the hassle when you can do it neat at the initial stage not to mention the additional professional fee that will be incurred when change of FYE involved.
(𝐢𝐢) 𝐓𝐚𝐱 𝐢𝐦𝐩𝐥𝐢𝐜𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 - 𝐏𝐮𝐛𝐥𝐢𝐜 𝐑𝐮𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐠 8/2014 (𝐏𝐑)
As stipulated under Para 4.2 of the PR, the first accounting period would be the first year of assessment for the SB.
But of course, if the Company intended to opt for (i)(c) above, the Company is obliged to comply to Para 5 of the PR as well.
All in all, of course, other than the above, there are a lot more factors which may come into play that may affect the decision such as the agreement with a third party, decision by key management personnel of the Company and etc. Hence, I am confident, each Company out there will come up with its best decision when fixing its first financial year end after a thorough consideration.

Can a Pioneer Status (PS) taxpayer claim Reinvestment Allowance (RA) on non-promoted product concurr
Can a Pioneer Status (PS) taxpayer claim Reinvestment Allowance (RA) on non-promoted product concurrently?
Why are taxpayers unable to enjoy pioneer status and reinvestment allowance at the same time? What should we take note of?
Lesson from Tax Case : Syarikat Kion Hoong Cooking Oil Mills Sdn Bhd vs Ketua Pengarah Hasil Dalam Negeri
The Company has been granted a pioneer certificate for promoted activity/product. Besides that, the tax relief period has not ended and ceased. Therefore, the Company is not eligible to claim reinvestment allowance (RA).
Background information
The Company is involved in the manufacturing of promoted products (ie, margarine and shortening) and non-promoted products (eg, cooking oil, coconut oil, refined oil, soap, animal and poultry feed).
The Company is exempted 85% of its statutory income in respect of the promoted products in which the Company has been granted pioneer status.
Besides, the Company also claims RA on capital expenditure incurred on plant and machinery used in the manufacture of these non-promoted products.
Tax Issue
Whether incentives of pioneer status and reinvestment allowance are mutually exclusive?
The Company’s opinion
The pioneer certificate granted to the Company was in relation to the promoted product/activity, it is not attached to the Company's status as a pioneer company.
According to the paragraph of interpretation of exclusion from reinvestment allowance, Schedule 7A para 7(a)(ii), it did not expressly exclude a company from claiming RA.
IRB argument
Pioneer certificate does not refer to the status of the products manufactured, it is referring to the status of the Company.
Under the interpretation of exclusion from reinvestment allowance, taking the position that pioneer companies were excluded from qualifying for RA during the pioneer period.
The decision by The Court (Court of Appeal)
The incentives of reinvestment allowance and pioneer relief are not mutually exclusive. The RA granted is to promote productivity through the use of new and efficient plants and machinery.
However, if the Company was granted pioneer status, regardless of whether it also had non-promoted activities/products, it was not entitled to claim RA. The exclusion from claiming RA does not apply to a company with a pioneer certificate that manufactures non-promoted goods.

Buy car under company or personal
Tax Opinion of Chai Shi Qing (Audit Semi-Senior of KTP)
It is advised to purchase the passenger car (say Proton X70) under personal name after taking the following considerations.
Contentions: -
(i) Tax perspective:
• Allowable expenses
According to Section 33(1) of Income Tax Act 1967, the expenses which are incurred for business purpose is generally allowable for tax deduction.
Therefore , the related expenses of motor vehicle( such as petrol, road tax and insurance, repair and maintenance) incurred for business purpose is deductible although it is registered under personal name.
• Benefit-in-kind
On the other hand, Section 39 (1)(a) of Income Tax Act 1967 provided that, the expenses incurred for personal use (private element) is not allowed for tax deduction.
However, Public Ruling No.11/2019 clarified that, the private expenses is deductible provided the expenses are treated as benefit-in-kind and reported as gross income of the person that is using the motor vehicle.
• Capital allowance claims
Public Ruling No. 5/2014 stated that the eligibility for capital allowance claims is not restricted to legal owner only, if the entity/person can be proven as the beneficial owner of the asset.
To qualify as a beneficial owner, the following conditions must be fulfilled:
(a) Incurred the qualifying expenditure (QE)
(b) Made the payment for the motor vehicle (Eg: Hire purchases installment, maintenance fee, and etc)
(c) The asset is utilized for his/her business
(ii) Commercial view:
• Lower cost
Based on practical experience, the purchase cost, hire purchase interest rate, insurance and road tax charges will be lower if the motor vehicle registered under personal name.

Should You Buy A Property Under My Personal Name or Sdn Bhd?
Should You Buy A Property Under My Personal Name or Sdn Bhd?
Buying property under a personal name or Sdn Bhd has its own advantages or disadvantages, depending on the management decision.
There are a few factors to be considered before a decision is made: -
1) Tax
a) Rental Income
Effective from 18/05/2022, LHDN has made clarification on the Investment Holding Company (IHC). IHC is not considered as Small and Medium Enterprise (SME) due to there is not gross income generated, even though the company received rental income, interest income, and etc.
This means the company is a non-SME and the rental income will be directly taxed at 24%, not eligible to enjoy the preferential tax rate under paragraph 2A, Schedule 1 of ITA 1967.
b) Real Property Gain Tax (RPGT)
There is no RPGT imposed from the sixth year onwards for individuals who are Malaysian citizens and permanent residents, effective from 01 January 2022.
On the other hand, when the company disposes of the property, the RPGT will be taxed at between 10% to 30%, depending on the period for the disposal of the chargeable asset.
c) Tax Audit
A high-risk-profile individual or company will be selected by LHDN for a tax audit. This is due to LHDN's wondering where the deposit came from when you paid the deposit for the property you purchased. Has it reported tax?
d) Investment Building Allowance (IBA)
The building owner is eligible to claim the IBA under paragraph 63(c) Schedule 3 of the ITA 1967 when the property purchased and used it as industrial building by the tenant.
This means the owner of the building is eligible to claim the IBA, thereby reducing the tax payable.
2) Loan
The loan can be obtained by the financial institution up to 90% for the first and second residential properties purchased under the personal name. However, if the company purchases the residential properties under Sdn Bhd, the loan obtained will only be 60% for the company.
Therefore, there is an advantage for the person who buys the residential property under their own name.
Furthermore, you must obtain a 10% to 20% upfront deposit to the financial institution, regardless of whether it is under your personal name or under Sdn Bhd.
3) Administrative Expenses
Basically, the administration costs incurred for IHC and a Sdn Bhd are almost the same. The cost of setting up a Sdn Bhd runs into the thousands of dollars.
Otherwise, there is no extra cost incurred for buying property under your personal name.
In conclusion, there is no absolute answer. You should think twice before you make the decision by considering the factors above mentioned. Before you invest in property under your personal name or Sdn Bhd, you should be aware of your own motivation for purchasing the property, period of ownership, frequency of transaction, and etc.

RMCD Special Voluntary Disclosure & Amnesty Program (VA) - Update
RMCD Special Voluntary Disclosure & Amnesty Program (VA) - Update
Background of VA
Under the proposed indirect tax amnesty program, taxpayers will be encouraged to voluntarily disclose underpaid or unpaid indirect taxes arising from errors or mistakes made in indirect tax filings or submissions, in exchange for reduced penalties.
Taxpayers who have failed to register and comply with indirect tax filing requirements are also expected to be eligible for the VA.
Key summary of VA
Special Voluntary Disclosure and Amnesty Program (VA) will be implemented with effect from 1 January 2022.
The VA program will be introduced in two (2) phases with penalty remission (with full payment during the said period) :
-
1 January 2022 to 30 June 2022 : 100% penalty remission
-
1 July 2022 to 31 December 2022 : 50% penalty remission
What is VA?
The VA program will involve two (2) distinct programs :
1. Voluntary disclosure program : Taxpayers can voluntarily disclose any unpaid or under-reported indirect tax/duty not known or discovered by RMCD under this program.
2. Amnesty program – Taxpayers with any outstanding Bill of Demand (“BOD”) or who have been audited by the RMCD Compliance Division and received audit findings on non-compliance areas can enjoy penalty and tax/duty remissions under this program.
The VA program will cover all indirect taxes administered by RMCD, including Sales Tax, Service Tax, GST, Tourism Tax, Departure Levy, Import Duty, Export Duty and Excise Duty.
Good faith
Voluntary disclosure submitted in good faith will be accepted. No audit will be conducted on the activities and periods involved.
Once the VA period is over, RMDC will enhance enforcement with hefty penalties.
