GST Insights: Recent Updates, Post Implementation Issues, Interpreting GST Tax Codes and Customs Audit Preparation

20th and 21st July 2016 – Petaling Jaya

 

Introduction

Since the implementation of GST in Malaysia from the 1st April 2015, there has been many changes and updates. One of the biggest implications of GST is the fact that it is a major offence to wrongly declare any of the GST transactions.

The need for organizations to constantly keep themselves updated on the GST treatments as required by the Royal Malaysian Customs and to take the necessary steps needed to correct their mistakes is more critical than ever.

The GST implementation in Malaysia is covered by several acts of parliaments primarily the GST Act 2014, GST Regulations 2014 and Finance Bill 2015. It is a major offence to submit incorrect GST submissions with wrong application of GST tax codes as these errors are subject to severe penalties.

The impact of non-compliance when discovered upon Customs audit can be serious with high compound and potentially fine and imprisonment. Authorities had already commenced prosecuting offenders in court and imposing high compounds for non-compliance.
