Do you have any updates on the income tax requirements for a Malaysian individual working as a contractor remotely in Malaysia for a US-based company and receiving payment in USD to their Malaysian bank account? confused.gif rclxub.gif

yours is locally sourced foreign income... fully taxable...

if us withholding tax has been paid by the company before sending to your local bank, you can claim unilateral tax credit for it...
