Hi bro,

I am kinda confuse with this....


My wife living and working from home in Malaysia. Her company is in Australia. Her salary is TTed to her Malaysia bank on a monthly basis from Australia.

In this case, is this income taxable?

I found on LHDN it is not taxable. (http://www.hasil.gov.my/goindex.php?lgv=2&chg=1)

Income Remitted from Outside Malaysia

With effect from the year of assessment 2004, income derived from outside Malaysia and received in Malaysia by a resident individual is exempted from tax.

But some said it is taxable....i am confused....

Please help.

What if the Australia income is a freelance job (2nd income, paid in USD TT from overseas)? If she have a regular job in Malaysia (Malaysia company, paying in RM), same rule apply? The 2nd income (Australia job income) still need to declare?


Thanks much !!!!

Noted and thanks everyone.

If our boss spend our tax money wisely of course we are happy to pay it. But they spent on beli cincin, pergi saloon, beli kapal terbang, masuk poket etc (many many more).... I am sure everyone not very willing to pay.
