DR CHOONG KWAI FATT

Budget 2025 : Comprehensive Tax Planning, and Important tax Updates (with Payroll Tax, E-Invoicing, Transfer Pricing and Capital Gains Tax)

Are you overwhelmed by the speed of tax changes and find it challenging to keep up to date? This seminar is specially made for you. Dr Choong wants to make this a practical Budget seminar by ensuring you don’t just stay in the loop with the latest changes. Understand the LATEST tax trap and effortlessly have practical NEW tax planning and business strategies in your hands!

Tax regulations constantly evolve, and staying updated is crucial for making informed business decisions.

2025 is a year of significant change.


The government is eager to launch attractive incentive packages to sustain the growth momentum.
The Budget 2025 Proposals aim to boost economic sustainability, public welfare, and national prosperity. By attracting an influx of foreign investment and high-tech activities, we are driven to revolutionise the digital economy and drive business growth. At the same time, getting ready to change the focus from direct to indirect tax.

When IRB become Efficient and Effective, What Businesses Need to Do?

Tax Regulation is experiencing rapid growth too. E-invoicing enables Malaysia’s government and businesses to shift to data-driven decision-making, which brings vast risks and enormous opportunities.

With real-time data on business transactions centralised in the IRB’s hands, government policies and economic measures are reformulated. By embracing these new, exciting changes, the business community prepares for tightened compliance and positions our business advantageously to use the tax perks provided and ride on the economic growth and innovation driven by the government.

Capital Gains Tax (CGT): Here’s how it works and Impact


Attention property investors!
A popular RPGT strategy has been registering real property under a company’s name and selling the company shares instead of directly selling the property. The IRB on 1 January 2024, the IRB closed this loophole by introducing a Capital Gains Tax (CGT).

With the release of CGT guidelines, we now have more precise insights into the scope, mechanisms, exemptions, and implications of share disposal both within and outside Malaysia, including intellectual property rights. Dr. Choong will delve into CGT on Day 3 of the seminar. We’re eager to hear Dr. Choong’s take on the most tax-efficient way to own property moving forward.

e-Invoice: has its Hiccups


E-invoicing is in its infancy, and we are expecting more rapid changes inserted in Budget 2025. Meanwhile, RMC is closing in on the loophole for sales and services tax to prepare for the final shift.

Avoid LATEST tax traps; Use the NEW tax planning and business strategies.

This MUST-ATTEND annual tax seminar doesn’t just guide you through the 2025 Budget Proposals. We cover gazette orders, tax cases and public rulings, too. Show you what you need to read between the lines. Quickly know the New Tax Traps to avoid, and have the new tax strategies at your fingertip.
