Malaysia Updates Service Tax Rules for Rental, Leasing, and MSME Exemptions

  • RMCD issued two service tax policies on 22 July 2026 for rental and leasing services.
  • Under Policy No. 4/2026, when multiple entities jointly provide the service under one contract, each entity is treated separately and must register and invoice its own taxable share if it meets the threshold.
  • Under Policy No. 2/2025 (Amendment No. 5), MSME tenants can get service tax exemptions based on turnover tiers reported to the IRB.
  • The MSME exemption applies to businesses registered in MyPMK by 31 December 2026, with turnover, paid-up capital, and ownership caps determining eligibility.
