Hi so im employed and working under a company all the while and has been declarring my income tax via form BE. This year 2025, i decided to try out dropshipping and it required me to set up a business registration, so i set up a sole prop under my name. However, i have not made any sales so far from it. In this case, for 2025 income tax which i will have to submit in 2026, how do i go about for this situation? Do i declare it under BE or form B?

There are other things to consider such as depreciating assets, etc other than your income. They might find it suspicious why u only declare form BE when u have a company and flag u. Even if u have no income from your sole prop, u can just declare it as 0. Then the combined income u can just put salary income.

B form, not BE.
I checked with my accountant and LHDN staff.
As long as you have a sole prop registered to your name, you are required to file B form and list the amount of businesses you have, in this case, it's 1.
In the future, if you decide to incorp Sdn Bhd/LLP or go back to full-time employment, you'll need to close down the sole prop formally via SSM in order to switch back to BE.
