If not declare rental income no need pay tax right?

Pandai2 dun get lipoted. LDHN pandai korek income ikan bilis, kalo ikan puas, buat tatau.

so rental got increase?

yes if no declare but risk of being audit by kastam and lhdn loh , now with einvoice, where to run, simple tin no. search and ic search, all info there already, just whether they want to do or not.

Who pays?

Tenant right?

yes, below is example, if u have 10,000 rent per month, so they add another 800 for SST

if sub rent will be tax under sst group g professional service , this one i am not sure, havent study yet

if your commercial property ( property use for business purpose ) if one year have RM800,000 rental income before the deduction of maintenance, sinking fund etc etc, are required to report to SST

landlord need to do extra work again to redo the contract rental agreement , landlord need waste money again for stamp duty and contract draft fee

end consumer / tenant bear the most after these



inb4, the abolish of GST consequence, owai
