Written in a lucid and clear manner, this book allows the reader to have a simple understanding of his rights and obligations as a taxpayer. The very practical and simple way in which the information is imparted will make the reader wonder why personal taxation appears so easy.
This readable book presents valuable pointers on the practical workings of the personal taxation system in Malaysia: classification of income; tax residence; submission of tax returns; joint and separate assessment; personal relief, deductions and rebates; set-offs, tax refunds and appeals; tax calculations; and lots more.
To make it easy for the reader to quickly find any particular point which is of interest, a detailed table of contents, clear summaries and helpful cross-references work together to facilitate navigation through the book. Instructive examples are available to illustrate the details of topics that are more complex. These examples often provide valuable guidance on how one’s personal tax matters can be arranged.
For easy reference, relevant Inland Revenue Guidelines and Public Rulings have been included. Where one is unsure of common technical taxation terms, a quick flip to the Glossary of Tax Terms will clear the reader’s doubts.
