Breakout 1 – Transfer pricing (TP)

TP rules and guidelines are making an impact in a big way – defend or plan?

Malaysia formally issued the Transfer Pricing Rules and Advance Pricing Arrangement Rules in May this year, which are being applied with retrospective effect from 1 January 2009. This was followed by the release of the Transfer Pricing Guidelines 2012 and the Advance Pricing Arrangement Guidelines 2012 in July.

In this session, our experienced professionals will share their insights on Malaysia’s transfer pricing regime, take you through the key regulations and show you how they could impact your company.

Breakout 2 – Goods and services tax (GST)

Is GST still relevant? We think so.

In a meeting with representatives from the private sector and associations in April this year, the Tax Review Panel (TRP) confirmed that the Government is ready to begin implementing the GST as soon as the date is announced. The TRP is of the view that businesses, likewise, should begin their preparation to be ready for GST. To date, there have been more than 20 guides on GST (four in 2012 alone) issued by the Royal Malaysian Customs.

Join us in this session where we will provide you with information and insights on the impact of GST on your businesses, the compliance requirements and how to deal with these changes.

Breakout 3 – Tax appeals

Standing up for tax principles – make your case heard

With increasing complexities and controversies surrounding the law and regulations on income tax and indirect taxes (customs duties, sales tax, service tax and excise duties), find out more from this session on the process and procedures involved in appeals to the Special Commissioners of Income Tax (SCIT) and the Customs Appeal Tribunal (CAT).

This session will also feature guest panelists who will share their insights and experience at appeals to the SCIT and CAT.

Breakout 4 – ASEAN incentives

Know your incentives – maximise your investments in ASEAN

To date, nine out of 10 nation members of ASEAN provide multiple forms of business incentives to attract foreign direct investments. This can pose significant challenges to companies looking to make the best investment decision.

In this session, we will have guest panelists who will provide an overview and comparison on selected incentives available in the region, specifically in Malaysia, Singapore, Indonesia, Thailand, Vietnam and the Philippines. We will also provide development updates on incentives in Malaysia (Treasury Management Centre, etc). In addition, find out what companies in Malaysia with existing incentives that are expiring soon can do moving forward.
