Foreign-sourced income planning
Foreign-sourced income planning & structuring advisory
Foreign-Sourced Income (FSI) was introduced effective 1 January 2022, and resident taxpayers will be taxed on FSI that is remitted into Malaysia. The tax rate applicable is based on the prevailing tax rate of the taxpayer. We help you to structure your FSI to mitigate the impact of FSI tax.
Our advisory ensures compliance while minimising the impact of FSI tax.
Our services include
- FSI tax impact assessment and planning
- Income structuring to mitigate the impact of FSI tax
- Review of applicable Double Taxation Agreements for double tax relief
