Should you stay or opt out of PERKESO LINDUNG 24 Jam? 🤔

With so many different opinions online, it's easy to feel confused.

But before making a decision, why not first understand what SKBBK actually provides and compare it with your existing insurance?

👉 What is LINDUNG 24 Jam?

👉 Is it the same as having a medical card?
👉 What happens if an accident occurs outside working hours?
👉 Where can you receive treatment?
👉 What should you check in your existing insurance?

🚨Paying overseas companies or non-residents? Don't overlook WHT!

Many businesses only start thinking about Withholding Tax (WHT) after receiving a notice from LHDN.

But WHT can arise from various types of payments, including:

✔ Interest
✔ Royalties and software/licence fees
✔ Technical or management services
✔ Contract payments
✔ Rental of movable property

And here's the part businesses really need to understand:

❗ Not complying with WHT requirements can potentially result in penalties and affect the deductibility of your business expenses.

In this video, we use simple examples to explain when WHT may apply, when payment is due, and what could happen if you don't comply.

🎥 Watch the full video and let us know if you've encountered WHT issues before.

📚 We also have upcoming practical classes:

**Malaysian Tax System** — 12–14 August
**Stamp Duty Essentials** — 23–25 September

Paying for ChatGPT, Claude or other AI tools with your company credit card?

Think it's just another monthly subscription?

Think again.

Many Malaysian businesses are unaware that subscribing to overseas AI platforms may involve more than just the subscription fee. Depending on your transaction, you may also need to consider:

✅ Withholding Tax (WHT) – May apply depending on the nature of the payment, contractual terms, and applicable tax rules.

✅ 8% Imported Service Tax – If the overseas provider is not registered as a Foreign Registered Person (FRP) and does not charge Malaysian Service Tax, your business may need to account for the tax under the Self-Accounting Mechanism (SAM).

✅ Self-Billed e-Invoice – Businesses purchasing services from overseas suppliers may be required to issue a Self-Billed e-Invoice within the prescribed timeline.

A small monthly AI subscription could result in unexpected tax exposure if not handled correctly.

Before subscribing to overseas AI, software or services, make sure you understand your tax obligations.
