According to the Securities Commission Malaysia's recent update on tax exemption FAQs dated 12/12/23 (Question 8), it has been clarified that only nominee companies incorporated under the Companies Act 2016 are eligible for this tax exemption. 😢
Unfortunately, LLPs investors, which are governed by the Limited Liability Partnerships Act 2012 (Act 743), are not currently eligible for this tax exemption based on the existing guidelines.

ISSUES WITH FILING AMOUNT LOWER THAN RM5,000
ECF operators are aware that some ECF investors are facing an issue in which the LHDN website version of the Borang Nyata Individu/Return Form of an Individual prohibits individuals to include an amount lower than RM5,000 in the required field. 💥💥💥
They have accordingly highlighted the issues to the concerned authorities, and was informed by LHDN that it is in the process of making the necessary improvements to their website.
Update on 1st April 2024:
LHDNM have made the necessary website improvements 👍👍👍. Affected investors can now proceed to file their tax returns.
