Subsequent to our tax alert in relation to the fourth extension of payment deadlines due to the Royal Malaysian Customs Department (“RMCD”), the RMCD has recently announced another extension of payment deadlines to 30 June 2020. Penalties imposed on tax payments for the following will be fully remitted if the payments are made by 30 June 2020:
- Sales tax or service tax (SST-02 returns)
- Service tax for imported taxable service (SST-02A returns)

This remission is given only for the following taxable periods ending:

The RMCD pointed out in another announcement that penalties will still be imposed and generated by the system if a tax payment is made after the default deadlines. However, this penalty will be fully remitted if the payment is made by 30 June 2020. The RMCD will remit any eligible Bill of Demand or penalty as soon as possible.
In addition, the RMCD also stated that it will not take any legal action for any late submission of the above returns.
