Compliance & Penalties
Some of this training is required by Malaysian law. Here's what each law requires and the penalty for skipping it.
A summary for general guidance, not legal advice. Figures are the penalties set by the law cited — most are maximums.
Sales Tax Act 2018 · Service Tax Act 2018
Businesses with taxable sales or services above RM500,000 in 12 months must register with JKDM and file returns on time.
Penalty: Up to RM30,000, 2 years' jail, or both for not registering; late payment adds up to 40% of the unpaid tax
Income Tax Act 1967 · LHDN e-Invoice Guidelines
Businesses with annual revenue of RM3 million or more must issue e-invoices through MyInvois; any single transaction above RM10,000 needs its own e-invoice.

Join open classes with professionals from other companies. An affordable way to upskill individuals and small teams.
Online, hybrid and physical training sessions available across Malaysia.
Under HRD Corp Employer Circular No. 2/2026 (effective 15 June 2026), in-house training can only start at least 14 calendar days after the training grant is approved, and must start within 90 days of approval. Training that begins without an approved grant is not eligible for claims or reimbursement.
Yes, if your annual revenue is RM3 million or more. LHDN phased e-invoicing in from August 2024 to January 2026; from 1 September 2026, businesses under RM3 million are exempt. Any single transaction above RM10,000 needs its own e-invoice.
It is an offence under the Income Tax Act 1967: a fine of RM200–RM20,000, up to 6 months' jail, or both — per offence. Each missed transaction can count separately.
Generally, businesses with taxable sales or services above RM500,000 in 12 months must register with the Royal Malaysian Customs Department (JKDM). Since 1 July 2025, service tax also covers rental, construction, financial services, private healthcare and education.
Late-payment penalties add up to 40% of the unpaid tax (10% + 15% + 15%). Failing to register can mean up to RM30,000, 2 years' jail, or both — and you still owe the tax.
Business owners, finance and accounts staff, tax executives and anyone who prepares invoices or SST returns.
Yes. LWA Academy is HRD Corp registered, so our finance, e-invoicing and SST training can be claimed against your HRD Corp levy once the grant is approved. In-house training can only start 14 days after approval, so apply early.
