How To Use Investment To Claim More Malaysian Income Tax Relief
Section 49(1D) of the Income Tax Act (ITA) provides that income tax deduction not exceeding RM3,000 can be claimed by an individual who has paid premiums for a deferred annuity; or made or suffered the making of a contribution to a private retirement scheme approved by the Securities Commission
How To Use Your Parents To Claim Higher Income Tax Relief

How To Use Your Spouse For More Malaysia Income Tax Relief
(i) Purchase of books journals, magazines, printed newspaper and other similar publications (except banned reading materials) for spouse; (ii) Purchase of a personal computer, smartphone or tablet for spouse; (iii) Purchase of sports equipment for any sports activity as defined under the Sports Development Act 1997 (exclude motorized two-wheel bicycle) and gym memberships for spouse
What’s the difference between these 2 type of Malaysian income tax deductions: income tax rebate & income tax reliefs?
Chargeable Income = Total annual income – Tax Reliefs. Tax payable is calculated based on your chargeable income. But Final Tax Payable = Tax payable – Tax rebate. In other words, tax reliefs reduce your chargeable (taxable) income. While tax rebates directly reduce the amount of tax you need to pay.
The easiest Malaysian income tax relief to be eligible for
EPF (KWSP) contribution INCLUDING not through salary deduction (3) | RM 4000 |
Contribution to the Social Security Organization (SOCSO) | RM 250 |
Lifestyle: (i) Purchase of books journals, magazines, printed newspapers and other similar publications (except banned reading materials); (ii) Purchase of a personal computer, smartphone or tablet; (1) (iii) Purchase of sports equipment for any sports activity as defined under the Sports Development Act 1997 (excluding motorized two-wheel bicycles) and gym memberships; (2) (iv) Payment of monthly bill for internet subscription | RM 2,500, including child & spouse |
(1) Hybrid computers include Microsoft Surface, Windows 8 Hybrid Laptop, refer to devices that possess attributes of a personal computer and a tablet with the use of a convertible / detachable keyboard and touchscreen.
Taxpayers cannot claim income tax reliefs for hybrid computers by placing them under personal computers as LHDN considers hybrid computers as separate categories of devices. This tax relief does NOT include additional charges for warranty for own use or for the use by own husband/wife or child, and NOT being used for the purpose of own business.
(2) Equipment with a short lifespan like dumbbells, golf sets, footballs, shuttlecocks, nets, rackets, martial arts weapons, fencing swords, electronic scoreboards are considered sports equipment, EXCLUDING motorized bicycles. Meanwhile, jerseys, sports shoes, pants, swimsuits are considered as sports attire, which means you can’t claim them for a lifestyle income tax relief. Payment for Gym membership (EXCLUDING club membership which provides gym facilities)
(3) A voluntary contribution made by an individual to an approved provident is not allowed as a tax deduction. However, the ‘voluntary contribution’ restriction does not apply to a self-employed person who contributed to the EPF.
The most overlooked Malaysian income tax relief you can miss out
Life insurance | RM 3000 |
Insurance premium for education or medical benefit INCLUDING not through salary deduction (1) | RM 3000 |
I purchased insurance policies for my two children under my wife’s name but I am paying the premium using auto debit from my credit card. Can I claim this?
To qualify for this income tax relief, the Malaysian insurance policy must be in your name (the policy owner is the claimant).
(1) A medical policy must satisfy the following criteria –
(a) the expenses should be related to the medical treatment resulting from a disease or an accident or a disability;
(b) the policy coverage should be for a period of 12 months or more;
(c) the policy can be a stand-alone policy or as a rider to a life insurance policy. If it is a rider, only the rider premium can qualify for tax relief;
(d) where a dreadful disease cover is attached to a basic policy, the whole amount of the rider premium paid is allowed as a tax relief;
(e) where a dreadful disease cover is packaged together with a term life/personal accident cover, 60% of the package premium is allowed as an income tax deduction;
(f) group medical policy where the employee pays the premium for the medical benefit also qualifies for income tax deduction; and
(g) the premium for waiver benefit rider and travel and medical expenses insurance are not allowable as a tax deduction.
The easiest mistake to make in claiming income tax relief
Scenario #1 – You only have a medical card (which you are paying RM 2,000 annually) and you put in the entire RM 2,000 under the “Insurance premium for medical benefit” tax relief. However, when you are singled out for random audit by LHDN, the taxman say you are over-claiming this tax relief by RM 300.
Do you wonder what’s wrong?
Scenario #2 – You have 1 insurance policy which consists of Life insurance, Critical Illness coverage and a Medical Card.
When you want to do your tax filing, you are utterly confused on how to split the different components (riders) and their corresponding premiums into the 2 categories of insurance tax reliefs (3,000 + 3,000)
The answer lies in the table below:
Life insurance |
You can claim income tax relief for life insurance premiums on your own life or the life of your spouse. * Deduction is NOT allowed on premiums paid for life insurance policy contracted on the life of the child. | RM 6000 (both, for combined assessment, or each, for separate assessment) |
Medical Insurance (1) | Whether you have a medical rider or a standalone medical policy, 100% of the premiums paid is eligible | RM 3000 |
Medical/ Life Insurance (2) | For policy/rider where dread disease coverage is packaged together with term life coverage, 60% of the total premiums paid may be allowed for deduction for Medical | RM 3000 |
Education insurance (3) | You may claim a tax deduction for a policy purchased as an education policy for your child(ren) | RM 3000 |
Automatic premium loan | As per Lembaga Hasil Dalam Negeri guideline dated 6 June 2005, premiums paid via Automatic Premium Loan are NOT entitled to tax relief | Not Allowed |
Note: (1), (2) and (3) are combined, not separate.
Now, it’s really not easy to maximize your life or health insurance coverage with the limited income tax reliefs (3,000 + 3,000) available to your every year.
In other words, you want to buy 1 million life insurance with 250k critical illness coverage and decent medical care, using the combined RM 6,000 tax reliefs, instead of just 200k Life & Critical Illness insurance with no medical card, don’t you agree?
But most insurance agents or intermediaries like to do the latter for you, so that they tend to maximize their earned commissions by recommending you the expensive plans unnecessarily, often without good reasons.
Without you even knowing! Because you don’t know what you don’t know.

FAQs on Malaysian Tax relief
What’s the difference between these 2 types of Malaysian income tax deductions, namely income tax rebate and income tax reliefs in Malaysia?
Chargeable Income = Total annual income – Tax Reliefs
Tax payable is calculated based on your chargeable income
But Final Tax Payable = Tax payable – Tax rebate
In other words, tax reliefs reduce your chargeable (taxable) income
While tax rebates directly reduce the amount of tax you need to pay.
Is it true that I heard women who return to work can get some sort of income tax relief or tax break?
True. If you’re on a break for more than 2 years and have decided to get back to work, you’re eligible for a one-year individual income tax exemption. This would mean you’re saving a lot of money especially when your income falls into a higher tax bracket.
This tax break programme has been implemented since 2019and will be overseen, as well as managed by a GLC called TalentCorp. Just remember to submit your application to TalentCorp before 31 December 2019. The exemption would be effective for Year of Assessment 2018 to 2020.
This is to cater for women who made the choice to take a break from the workforce after having kids because they want to focus on becoming full-time moms. So to encourage more women to continue their careers and increase their contribution to the national economy, the government has offered a financial incentive.
I purchased supplements that help in controlling my [medical condition]. However, this is not a prescription from a doctor as I just follow the pharmacist’s recommendation. Am I able to claim for it?
See above. The purchase of supplements or even medication without a doctor’s prescription would not fall within this definition and therefore it is not claimable as a tax relief.
I am on anti-allergy medication. Are the medical costs claimable under Malaysian income tax relief?
See above. Since the definition exemplifies diseases that are serious and chronic in nature, this does not fall within this definition.
I want to claim tax relief for my parents’ medical expenses but receipts are under their name. How should I go about this?
You can claim the tax relief, provided that the tax relief is evidenced by a medical practitioner’s receipt to certify that the treatment was provided for your parents.
Where the receipts are issued in your parents’ names, you may need to substantiate your relationship with your parents by showing proof such as your birth certificate, in the event of an audit by the Inland Revenue Board.
I have a sister who has a mental illness and has been staying at a nursing home. She is on full-time medication and consultation at HKL. His monthly nursing home fee is RM 950, which totals RM 11k per year. Can l claim income tax relief of RM6,000 under disabled individuals?
The income tax relief of RM6,000 for a disabled individual is applicable to a taxpayer who is himself/herself disabled, not his/her siblings. Therefore, you are not entitled to the tax relief.
Can I claim medical expenses for my father-in-law? He is living with me and I pay for all her medical fees.
The tax relief of up to a maximum of RM5,000 is in respect of medical expenses expended by taxpayer for his or her own parents. You are not entitled to claim the tax relief for your in-laws.
I heard we can claim rental income tax exemption; how?
Introduced in Budget 2018, rental income from residential investment properties would be eligible for a 50% exemption from income tax.
To be eligible for this tax exemption, you need to fulfil these requirements:
- Your real estate property is an apartment, flat, landed, or anything otherwise legally designated as residential title
- The monthly rental for each property is no more than RM2,000
- The tenancy agreement has to have been stamped and executed on or after 1 January 2018.
- Actual tenancy takes place in the year of assessment 2018 to 2020 (tax filing done between 2019 and 2021).
Should I file for an individual tax assessment or joint tax assessment?
First of all, you must be married to your partner. Being engaged to your fiancee or cohabiting with your boyfriend/girlfriend do not count under Section 45 of Malaysia’s Income Tax Act 1967.
Consider the following 2 scenarios.
Joint assessment Scenario #1
Husband earns salaried income, wife has zero or no significant income, and vice versa. No business income available although investment income may be present.
Electing for joint assessment under the income-earning spouse is recommended, as s(he) can claim for RM 3,000 spousal tax relief.
Joint assessment Scenario #2
Husband possesses business income, wife has salaried income, and vice versa. Business suffer losses in the year of assessment, therefore choosing joint tax assessment under the salaried spouse’s name is usually ideal.
Why?
Because both husband and wife’s income is aggregated and regarded only as one single individual from a tax perspective.
Generally, when both husband and wife are high salaried income earners in the year of tax assessment, or either one or both of them are generating profit from businesses, it is always advisable to choose separate assessments to double leverage on the relevant income tax reliefs and deductibles.
Why?
Choosing joint tax assessment would usually land them in a higher tax bracket, plus, you lose the ability to double leverage on the applicable income tax reliefs, especially the no-brainer, no receipt required RM9,000 individual tax relief.
Furthermore, in the case of separate individual assessments with children, it will be more worthwhile to claim for children tax relief under the spouse with the higher income.
A point to note though is that you both parents cannot claim children tax relief for the same child.
