Why Corporate Tax Compliance Matters?

Under the self-assessment system, the Inland Revenue Board of Malaysia (IRBM) has placed the responsibility of computing taxes to taxpayers. Accordingly, businesses are required to ensure that taxes are accurately computed and paid on time. Non-compliance will result in imposition of additional taxes, hefty penalties and unnecessary financial exposure.

All companies and businesses deriving Malaysian-source income are required to submit an annual tax return. Frequent changes in the tax legislation have increased the pressure on taxpayers to ensure that their tax returns are accurately prepared. The possibility of tax audit conducted by the IRBM further elevates the risk of incurring additional taxes and penalties.

Tax compliance is more than just submitting returns — it is a critical responsibility for all businesses operating in Malaysia. Effective compliance helps in optimising tax efficiency, avoiding penalties, audit risks and legal exposure while maintaining accurate financial records and supporting long-term financial stability and growth.
