How Is Corporate Tax Calculated in Malaysia?
Corporate tax in Malaysia is calculated based on your company’s chargeable income—your gross income minus allowable business expenses and capital allowances. The Inland Revenue Board of Malaysia (LHDN) applies a tiered tax structure, particularly benefitting qualifying Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs).
The prescribed corporate tax rates are as follows:
| Company Category | Income Range | Tax Rate |
|---|---|---|
|
Up to RM150,000 | 15% |
| RM150,001 – RM600,000 | 17% | |
| Above RM600,000 | 24% | |
| Non-SME (above SME thresholds) | All income | 24% |
SMEs must meet both the paid-up capital and gross business income thresholds to be eligible for the preferential rates. Any income exceeding RM600,000 is taxed at the standard rate. Companies that do not qualify as SMEs pay a flat rate of 24% on all chargeable income.
Additional considerations such as tax incentives, exemptions, and strict compliance with current Malaysian tax laws can further influence the final tax figure. Accurate and up-to-date financial documentation is essential in determining your company’s true obligations and maximising tax efficiency.

- To qualify for the preferential SME tax rates (15% and 17%) in 2026, a company must have a paid-up capital of RM2.5 million or less and an annual gross business income not exceeding RM50 million. Additionally, the company must not be part of a group where a related company exceeds these capital thresholds
- Companies must file their Corporate Tax Return (Form C) within seven months after the close of their financial year-end. For example, if your financial year ends on 31 December 2025, your filing deadline is 31 July 2026. Failure to comply can result in penalties ranging from 10% to 45% of the tax payable.
- Effective 1 JULY 2026, all Malaysian businesses—including those with annual revenue below RM5 million—must comply with the LHDN MyInvois e-Invoicing system. Accurate tax calculations now rely on digital reconciliation, as LHDN will use e-invoice data to verify "allowable expenses" and "chargeable income" during audits.
