GOODS AND SERVICES TAX FOR COMPANY SECRETARIES 2 MARCH 2015, MON ■ 09.00AM-05.00PM ■ BANGUNAN MAICSA, KUALA LUMPUR INTRODUCTION GST which is a broad based consumption tax covering all sectors of the economy, is levied on the supply of goods and services at each stage of the supply chain from the supplier up to the retail stage of the distribution. There is a common misunderstanding that businesses will suffer a higher cost of goods once GST is implemented. GST for Company Secretaries are for secretarial practices who provide company secretarial and related services and who are required to be a “registered person” under the Goods & Services Tax Act, 2014. GST does not become part of the cost of rendering the secretarial or related services because GST- incurred inputs are claimable no matter how many stages a particular service goes through the supply chain. The input tax incurred by a Company Secretarial practice is deducted by the registered secretarial practice when the practice renders the services to the client. This is the same with imported services. Disbursements and reimbursements under GST have specific meanings and cannot be used interchangeably due to the GST implications of each. • COURSE OUTLINES: Overview of GST in Malaysia • An introduction to GST in Malaysia • Consumption tax, replacing Sales & Service Tax, using VAT procedure basis • Mechanism – Output tax, Input tax and Input Tax Credit (ITC) • Elements of the Scope of GST in Malaysia • Supply of goods and services • Meaning of “supply” • Determination of goods and services • Importation of services and reverse charge mechanism • What is “business” • The meaning of “business” • The “Business Test” and Business” test • LEARNING OUTCOMES At the end of the course, participants will be able to :• Obtain a good overall understanding of the Malaysian Goods & Services Tax and its application to a company secretarial practice;
