The Targeted Revision of the Sales Tax Rate and Expansion of the Service Tax Scope (“SST Expansion”), announced by Malaysia’s Ministry of Finance, comes into effect on 1 July 2025. As a core component of the Government’s fiscal reform agenda, it aims to strengthen national revenue, broaden the tax base, and reduce reliance on oil and gas income, all while safeguarding the rakyat’s financial well-being. Though framed as an indirect tax measure, the SST Expansion brings wide-ranging implications. Businesses across industries will need to reassess procurement strategies, supply chains, legal frameworks, and compliance protocols, particularly in relation to exemption claims.
Our tax practitioners and special guest speakers from Royal Malaysian Customs Department (RMCD) will walk you through compliance considerations, exemption mechanisms, and strategies to address the revised requirements. You’ll also have the chance to engage with the experts during Q&A sessions and open discussions — to clarify uncertainties and gain useful takeaways tailored to your business needs.
