Statute overview

About this statute

This Act amends several tax laws and adds new rules for capital asset disposals and electronic invoicing. This part defines many terms used for the GloBE and top-up tax rules, including a 15% minimum rate. This Part applies to large multinational groups, sets when Malaysian entities must pay top-up tax, and allows certain elections and adjustments for computing GloBE income and covered taxes. This provision sets how the Effective Tax Rate and Multinational Top-up Tax are calculated, including formula-based exclusions, elections, and later recalculations in certain cases. Constituent Entities in a multinational enterprise group must file the required returns, keep documents, and report address changes; the Director General has information-gathering and assessment powers, and some tax amounts, elections, refunds, and penalties are governed here.
