Hi guys,

I know this is kind of outdated but I have a question regarding the issue discussed above. Hopefully someone can provide some advise as the links above are dead.

The scenario as below :

1. I am currently engaged by a local Sdn. Bhd. and paying my taxes
2. Assuming that I am hired by a Pte. Ltd. company based in Singapore,
but I will be working in Malaysia expanding the local market for them.

I believe that if I am paid in Singapore, I will have to pay non-resident tax which amounts to 15% .

Another option I'm looking at is to request that monthly salary be TTed directly to my bank account in Malaysia. In this situation, would I need to pay tax since although the money is from a foreign source, I would actually be "working" in Malaysia.

Yes! Need to declear

Sorry to bring this topic up again, but I have question.

I was now based in Malaysia and work from home (for my own sole-proprietorship company in Singapore) as all my business my delivered online via email.
I set-up a virtual office by only renting a legal office address for client to make send me payment.

Payment from client was directly into my Singapore bank account.
I went Inland Revenue to ask, but the officer said I do not have to pay for Singapore tax, as long as the work wasnt being "produce" in Singapore.
It doesnt matter why i was paid in Sing.

But then I heard foreign-earned income is exempted in Malaysia.
So how ah...? I dont have to pay tax? can someone guide me?  

Got such big toad anyhow hopping on the street anot..? 

Thanks for the quick respond

Sorry to ask a silly quest.. how to define "NOT WORKING" in MY eh..?

Yes, I was based in MY more than 185days a year.
NOT WORKING.. hmm.. yeah, most of the time not in working condition.
Not tagging with any agencies. No working record in Malaysia..

My role is basically a middle-man/ art buyer.
To buy Malaysian Art behalf of my company in SG and sell to overseas clients..

So it was actually some other artists WORK, send me soft copy, and i export via email.

Are there any citation from any Section on Acts etc that you can share with me?

I am facing the similar situation and am considering the implication for bringing a lump sum of foreign money back to Malaysia from HK
