hi,

im not sure im slow or not.

Im just realized the personal relief is RM9,000 !

Guys I'm a fresh grad, I only started working late last year so I won't have to file for tax, but I would like to know how the tax is charged.

I've always heard people saying there is no tax for those with monthly income less than RM 2500 monthly / RM 30,000 annually, but I can't seem to find this anywhere in the hasil.gov.my website. Is it true?

Anyway, say I earn RM 30,000 a year. My chargeable income would be something like
= RM 30,000 - 11% EPF - RM 9,000 personal relief - all other tax relief items

Correct? And once I arrive at that amount, I can use the list from http://www.hasil.gov.my/goindex.php?kump=5...it=5000&sequ=11 to see how much I'm going to be taxed. Btw, that list is based on annual income right?

Well going by that list... if someone earns RM 1,500 per month/RM 18,000 annually, after deducting the personal tax relief and EPF, there will probably still be chargeable income? So it's not true that you have to earn above RM 2500 per month to be liable for tax?

hi, what should i fill in these columns?

Where to get help or more info for first time tax payer?

Like tax payer for dummy kinda thing

i have 1 scenario on claim for Sport equipment tax relief maximum claims RM300.

as some of you might know, Sport equipments tax relief did not include sport attire and sport shoe.

Here's my scenario:

Im a marathoner runner. i run 42km marathon. Can i claims my running shoe under sport equipment tax relief ?

i asked 1 friend who practice in tax: her reply said Once IRB said can not, then its Can not claim.

while another 1 friend who also practice in tax, said i got my reason on claiming the the tax relief as its "Running Shoe" not sport shoe.

Its a running shoe used for training for marathon and used for marathon.

with this basis, she suggested me to claim RM300.

What's other opinion?

Sports equipment

> Purchase of sports items is exempted from tax to encourage healthy lifestyle among Malaysians. Does this include fees for gym membership and the personal trainer that we hire at the gym? Does this include items like training mat, fit balls, dumbbells, barbells, treadmill and others?

A maximum tax relief of RM300 is allowed in respect of expenses for the purchase of sports equipment for any sports activity as defined under the Sports Development Act 1997, evidenced by receipts for the purchase.

The sports activities listed in the First Schedule of the Sports Development Act 1997 include athletics, badminton, body building, canoeing, fencing, golf, recreational, sepak takraw, table tennis, water sports, and more.

Gym membership and personal training session costs do not qualify for tax relief since they are not sports equipment.

To date, the LHDN has not issued a specific list of qualifying sports equipment. Equipment such as dumbbells and barbells may arguably qualify as sports equipment.

EFFECTIVE from year of assessment 2008, taxpayers are given a relief of up to RM300 yearly for the purchase of sports equipment.

Equipment that are entitled to this relief are those used for sporting activities as defined under the Sports Development Act 1997. I would be pleased if you could provide some examples of the sports equipment that will be entitled to this relief.

It is interesting to note that in the guidebook for the year of assessment 2008 (Buku Panduan Borang B 2008 – pdf version), it is mentioned that sports shoes are excluded.

This may seem as an anomaly as a pair of running shoes may be a major “equipment” used in athletics, a sport defined under the Sports Development Act 1997. – FOOK

A TAX deduction is allowed for an amount limited to a maximum of RM300 in respect of expenses expended for the purchase of sports equipment for any sports activity as defined under the Sports Development Act 1997, as evidenced by receipts issued.

The term sports activity is listed in the First Schedule of the Sports Development Act 1997 and ranges from athletics, badminton, canoeing, fencing, golf, recreational, sepak takraw, table tennis to watersport, etc.

You are correct to point out that whilst equipment with short lifespan e.g. golf balls and shuttlecocks have been accepted by the IRB in the Buku Panduan, certain sports attire have specifically been excluded e.g. swimsuits and sports shoes.

Hi all,

When we try to fill in the 1st page of personal information for BE form, there is a field of 'Compliance of Public Rulling', and the selection of the field is either 'Yes' or 'No'.

So I would like to ask for anyone of you who know what is that field means? Can I just select 'No'? My mistake that I did not even notice that field for my past few year tax filling...!!
