- The Royal Malaysian Customs Department amended the sales tax exemption guide, expanding eligible machinery, equipment, and spare parts under the A55 exemption effective 1 July 2025.
- The A55 exemption applies to MIDA-endorsed companies for items used directly in manufacturing, provided they are listed in the updated appendix 1.
- Amendments include additions and exclusions of specific items and tariff codes in chapters 40, 74, 75, 79, 84, and 85.
- Companies must verify if their items are now included in the amended list and ensure all conditions are met to avoid penalties or loss of exemption.
