How many days you exercised employment in Malaysia ??

roughly 3-5 months. depending on the job. sometimes stay few weeks then travel to indonesia/australia. then travel back to malaysia/singapore.

Hey guys, I have been doing online surveys these few months, and paid in US dollars, by foreign registered companies, the sum is around hundreds now.

Do I need to declare it in the upcoming tafsiran?

Hi there,

Generally, any income that you earned and derived from Malaysia (regardless your employer is registered in Malaysia or not, or your salary is in which currency) shall be declared as income and tax in Malaysia.

Back to your question, I will say that you should declare your income although the amount is immaterial. You know, IRB officer have the right to impose penalty nowadays if they found out that you submit incorrect return

would you mind to explain what do you mean by foreign income? and why is not taxable?

Not so sure about it but what i heard even income from paypal is taxable. correct if im wrong.

while waiting for value added responses....hope this helps to provide you with some guide.....

thanks mum

now it raises new question, does the witholding tax only applies to interest amount earned from the principal above 100k? Lets say i put 200k and earn 4 percent a year. the first 4000 is tax free and the next 4000 is subject to the 5 percent tax.

If the above mentioned scenario is not the case, i already could forseen a way around it. continue from the scenario above i could split 200k into 2 fd with 2 different banks.

but than again i am not conversant in malaysian taxation law, and if a 10 years old could work out a way around it, chances are Hasil ( your tax man ) knows about it.

If those funding societies are not approved financial institution like banks (for tax exemption), then, yes, those interest earned is taxable.
.

does he has any unpaid taxes?

Malaysians should pay all taxes owed before their death to avoid having their families penalised over the unpaid sums, the Inland Revenue Board (IRB) has said.
