How does GST affect Malaysian SME – GEC Business Review

by Paul Lee

In general, total GST (or known as Goods & Service Tax) amount is paid by the taxable parties or individuals, of which it effectively paid across the value chain, through GST input credits and so on; businesses should not be affected directly by price increases due to any additional cost or GST.  

In brief, the added cost through the implementation process of GST will be due to the administration of GST input. Because of this, businesses with an annual turnover of less than RM500,000 are exempted from being GST taxation, hence such business is not eligible to collect or pay GST.
