update with the slide now



Slide 9: "Rental or Leasing Services"

This slide details the Service Tax on Rental or Leasing Services at an 8% rate.

Registration Requirement: Taxable service value must reach RM500,000 within 12 months.

Non-Taxable Services: Includes residential housing, reading materials, financial leasing, and tangible assets outside Malaysia.

Exemptions: Business-to-business (B2B) exemption and group relief to avoid double taxation. Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) with annual sales under RM500,000 are exempt from service tax. Non-reviewable contracts receive a 12-month exemption from the effective date

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

Pmx only good friend with Da ge xxp

Mcdani is finding ways to fuck us in the ass.

many condo now are under serviced apartments categories, so ya, good luck to all

and people/gov need to understand....commercial rental's rate are the highest compared to residential
if the rent is RM10k, that's RM800 extra...u call it rental increment but at the same time it's not because it goes to the gov

thn after that u may want to increase your rent too which is for you but thn the SST makes it goes up too
thn your own rental income is also subjected to income tax as well

Rob the rich, give back to the poor.

Totally fine with this, gov is clean now and future looks bright. It is my civic duty to give back part of my income to this beautiful country.

If I appoint agency to manage and they pay me after deducting all the fee.

So I declare or they declare?

Rental income need to calculate in Income tax right?
So this is additional?

yes , income rental u pay sst% , then rental income tax is another calculation, like u pay 2 tax. But for now lets wait for the actual SST announcement coming soon before 1 may 2025, curious how this guy got the info but better ready bah

hopefully this is fake news lah.

because this is really kerajaan Mahaldani f**king us landlords in the @$$, collecting taxes from all corners.

just bring back GST but name it as VAT and start with 3% first lah. then increase bit by bit say 0.5% per year, then hit max ceiling at 6% enough lah.

Total income 500K below still exempted, no?

This website info still very old lah.... seems to still describe rules in 2018 only, but made by royal custom of Malaysia hmmm

https://mysst.customs.gov.my/RegisterBussiness


This website still describe RM500K is the threshold requirements

thanks to madani

Tipu la, belom announce to fix a date to announce a meeting to discuss about this pun.

I think only applies to total rental income exceed rm500k p.a.

that's bad

if tak jadi

this TS will become another 18 Jan MPKL

nuuuuuuuuuu

1st of May unlikely lah, sure kena hantam, mau implement also kasi like 6-12 months notice dulu mah

if rental increase need to pay SST 8%
but if diam diam. no agrement and no stamping LHDN sure not kena

This post has been edited by K.I.T.T: Apr 25 2025, 01:05 AM

i thought kena tunggu tenancy expired ?

ggwp

Tak nak GST, now rental tax pun datang

Mati lo tenant, rent increase semua pun increase

Commercial title , automatically commercial

The screenshot TS posted is the rental rule established a long time ago. Does not look like there is any new change. You could see the same rule in the SST portal related to accommodation section.

This move will make people more likely to skip stamping tenancy ad

Those malls will be most affected
Esp half dead one.

Can. Just increase manufacturing costs jer.
End up rakyat pay also.

Hmmmm rental income alrdy taxed (landlord), by LHDN.
Now Kastam wanna tax tenant side.

Kena fucked all around

Padan muka… remove GST which is the best method in the world

Then replace with multi layer SST with e invoice that worse

Enjoy! Abc sst

Agent fee and other procurement fee sula lama ade ma

bad for owners on both side actually

it will look like rental increment on landlord side but that money doesn't go to him/her...it goes to the gov

okay time to remove it

No agreement no protection from tenant/landlord....
Anything happen can't go call authority....
Else the predator will come knock the door...

https://www.thestar.com.my/business/busines...ive-july-1-2025

I thought a hoax hahhaaa

so Reits all kena extra 8% on leasing and rental?

May already pass.. Need to back date... Lol..

Padan muka for the ppl believe in guan eng abc gst song

Now got multi layer complicated tax

the plan is to introduce a lot of complicated tax, then everyone beh taHan then will ok with GST.

so rent got 8% or not, in the news didn't see also , the rental commission already need to pay 8% jor.

You underestimate LHDN capabilities… this is the most effective efficient dept out of all gov agencies … people working in there are elite and they know where are leakages as well… whether it is the right time to take action only, and they can backdate and tax you with late fee … with AI and Big Data, unless your rent is cash term else hard to run away … your money trail is easily identified if online banking …

homeless people

Wait need sst protal update and the edge seem to know which area got tax liao

Update with the edge tax

racing bicycle pun mau tax lol...

Ppl who buy carbon bike / racing bike before : skyurnya

Then ur tenant also cannot use rental payment as cost lo

Niama 500k rental income, who here got such popeti

helang shopping mall, mega hostel business in somewhere

Those semi-D factory/showroom, 1 month 20-25k.

If the landlord got 2 biji or above, then mah qualify to register & collect on Govt's behalf loh.

need to see tomorrow

The Court of Appeal has set June 10, 2025, to hear Anwar’s application for an interim stay of the trial proceedings and June 21, 2025, for his application for a permanent stay pending the outcome of the appeal.

OWAI

here got or not?

kopitiam has the best demographic of income, if here got then is bad news affect a lot Malaysian, if tarak, then fuck those rich assholes

Betul.

Those tenants in shopping malls. Pavilion, MidV, OneU, Pyramid, Velocity, IOI, IOI City...........

since when those malls tenants own the units?

that format die a long time ago in sungai wang, lot 10, berjaya Times square, now all terkial kial,

new Malls all rental and profit sharing basis, mall owns everything, no one owns individual lots

What cost? For tenant to claim GST?

Mall owns everything, they will naik no choice. So those who makan at the mall will have to eat heavier rental

bayar rental to landlord under personal name .
landlord also dont provide any receipt.
if tenant mark " duit repair moto " goverment also cant do anything.

Well fml

simpan dalam USD in paypal. bulan2 withdraw macma gaji.

i bet cina landlord will register.

with e-invoicing
many will kena, if your counterparty (the tenant) is a company subject to e-invoicing.

the process will be something like this;
tenant company will perform self-bill (due to counterparty being individual)
self-bill will include detail like IC no;

hence when company (tenant) issue self-bill e-invoice they will remark Mr Ong Ah Kau as the landlord, rental paid RMxxx on which date. etc.

if the company rents from another company (subject to e-invoice) the other company (landlord) will issue them (tenant) an invoice for the rental via e-invoice anyway so no need for self-bill.

We run a small retail brand

Permonth rental agak agak 600k (all branches)

Ccbpkmniamacipet

Anwar really killing off malaysia smes😅

No one going to Guling-guling on the road?

less than 500k rental income don need do anything lo?

cukur my bangsar condo no need cukai

8% is almost 1 month rent gone to madani liao...

damn pain wei.. can hit ur yield quite significantly..

time for cina to wake up and smell the sh1t that the Madani administration is shitt1ng

yes if u didnt hit 500k rental income for the year , most helang hostel / shopping mall / kilang already over 500k per year

Takpe all residential.

Tankiu anuar bossku perihatin

Tanya sikit if wanna curi ayam can ask tenant to transfer to ewallet?

Will that subject to LHDN checking?

This post has been edited by JustForCheonging: Jun 10 2025, 08:26 AM

transfer e wallet already show transparency name etc etc, so easy for lhdn check , u cant go against them if they want to check or they will suspect u curi tax

They enjoyed it.

They wanted the change from the time they were born.

Betul jugak. Ok tq

Or if ones got too cocky or high profile, ppl can always drop anonymous tip to LHDN. Yup with e invoice happening, these ppl can’t run d unless like someone mentioned : u r helang level.

already pay rental income tax not enough still have to collect SST, knncb

the company who rented from you will e-invoice you, hence your information is in LHDN already

if residential that one maybe can

If your landlord says raise rent, tell him go get fucked I change place, see he dare pass to you or not

SST is paid on the collector not renter Mar, you rent individual units each unit different landlord why should there be any sst?
