How Malaysia Income Tax Works
Malaysia uses a progressive income tax system for resident individuals. You only pay the higher rate on the portion of income that falls within each bracket โ not on your entire income. Reliefs reduce your chargeable income before the rates are applied.
Total Income
Add up all income sources: employment, rental, freelance, dividends. Exclude exempt income such as Zakat, scholarship grants, and exempt dividends.
Deduct Reliefs
Subtract all eligible tax reliefs โ personal, EPF, medical, education, spouse, and child reliefs. The remainder is your chargeable income.
Apply Brackets
Apply the progressive rates to each portion of your chargeable income. Sum them up to get your tax payable, then subtract any applicable rebates.
