no, kasi donasi jer

For coming income tax submission, there is this (max RM2500) deduction for Lifestyle Sports. Do you manage to claim this? Still very blur what can be claimed and what cannot. ESport means can claim for computer mouse and chair?

Gym membership can. Sport shoes can. PC can but fully built only. If buy parts cannot.

How about mobile phones?
Technically an equipment for esports too.

But I read somewhere that sports shoes are not under sports tax claims.

Don't bother esport. Put your phone and internet bill in it.
Sports shoes cannot. Govt already said no.

Running shoes also qualified for the relief, she added.

Other expenses such as rental fees or entry fees to any sports facility, registration fees for sports competition and gym membership fees or sports training could all be claimed, Yeoh pointed out.

Hannah lied then? Or minister dumdum don't know? 

Yeah hence why I don't plan to claim my recent purchase

Running watch also I hesitant. Not sure if can pass the criteria. Lhdn ask you Lari what event I also don't know what to show them haha

Lifestyle – Expenses for the use / benefit of self, spouse or child in respect of:

Purchase or subscription of books / journals / magazines / newspapers / other similar publications (Not banned reading materials)Purchase of personal computer, smartphone or tablet (Not for business use)Purchase of sports equipment for sports activity defined under the Sports Development Act 1997 and payment of gym membershipPayment of monthly bill for internet subscription (Under own name)

Some said that he asked lhdn officer about what purchases deemed as acceptable for sports, and he said if the sports can still be played without the purchase, then it is not accepted. So for example if you're a cyclist, bicycle, tyres or gears are claimable but not gloves, sunglasses, helmet, fitness tracker, etc.

So by that logic, I asked him if laptop and mobile phones are claimable since you can't play esports without them. He didn't answer me.

The 2500 is for lifestyle deduction. PC and mobile phone for personal use can claim.
Your internet subscription also can claim. You never file tax before is it? It has been like that for years.

kek.
2500 is easily maxed with just phone bills and internet bills.
Now they give extra 1k for sport, hence I plan to optimize/maximize my tax exemption la.

Don't bother esport. Put your phone and internet bill in it.
Sports shoes cannot. Govt already said no.

Lol gov really bodo

They think play sports use slippers?

Hannah Yeoh said can claim for shoes.
People work until health problem, kasi sikit appreciation la.

TS ask about rm2500 not rm1000. You want that one go open new thread. 

Badminton rental court fees also can claim?

Badminton racket, shuttlecock and badminton shoes also can claim?

The tax relief per person for expenses related to sports includes:


- Training fee tax exemption for 103 types of sports under the Sports Development Act 1997
- Gym memberships and fees for sports training (one-off sessions or structured programmes)
- Rental fees for sports facilities
- Registration fees for sports competitions
- Purchase of sports equipment (excluding motorcycles) listed under the act

According to Hannah, the training fees must be paid to providers such as sports associations, clubs, or companies registered with the Sports Commissioner or incorporated under the Companies Act

"The public need to check whether the coaches or the training they undertake are registered properly. They cannot claim tax relief if they train or are coached by unregistered coaches or entities," she said.

kesian, kenot answer then don't act know how la.
I'm sure its a legit discussion since people would like to know if they can claim both lifestyle rebate and the added sports rebate.

Similar to a few years back where they increased lifestyle rebate to another RM2,500.
A computer purchase of 5k can combine both quotas to enjoy maximum rebate.

No use tell them. Some people here don't know how to read while some never file tax before. 

Before this can't claim shoes.

ts already said rm2500 up there. Don't know how to read then want to putar.
Want to putar about ownself already max and that. Now want to putar about combine some more.
In the end pc, laptop or mobile phones can claim.  Only people hasn't been filing tax don’t know.
At least ts know to ask. 

kesian, trying hard to sound smart.
Ok boy, if you don't know how to maximize tax claims, at least now you know.

I created the last thread about sport shoes for tax relief. Hannah is wrong. Some ktards asked lhdn and the officers said no

https://taxpod.com.my/articles/lifestyle-tax-relief/

Sports Equipment:
Includes non-motorised equipment like balls, shuttlecocks, and other short-lifespan items.
Excludes motorised bicycles, sports shoes, and swimsuits.

Problem is lhdn hasn't even updated their site regarding the rm1000
https://www.hasil.gov.my/individu/kitaran-c...elepasan-cukai/

At least Hannah claim is recorded while others are more like 3rd party information.
Unless can get written clarification from lhdn.

I did claim sport specific shoes last time (weightlifting) and they said it was allowed. Running or general shoes cannot last time.

But with lhdn better err on the side of caution.

The 2500 is for lifestyle deduction. PC and mobile phone for personal use can claim.
Your internet subscription also can claim. You never file tax before is it? It has been like that for years.
