Programme Synopsis

Do payments for “handling and repacking” charges equate to royalty payment? Learn about WHT basis. It is essential to understand what WHT is and how to manage cross-border transactions. An understanding of your business's fundamental cross-border (potential) risks will allow you to manage your tax risk with confidence.

The law of international taxation is used in this seminar to describe the rules and principles that together form how Lembaga Hasil Dalam Negeri Malaysia asserts and limits its jurisdiction to tax cross-border flows of income.

However, you should be aware that there is no universally accepted view as to the precise nature of international tax law, and there is even a view that there is no overarching international tax regime.

That there are competing views in this area is of little surprise. As you will discover, taxation is a highly controversial and politically driven area of study, and that makes it even more exciting.

This program is a mix of practical experience and academic knowledge.
