Transfer Pricing Masterclass on Intra-Group ServicesMalaysians are now living in a new era since the Pakatan Harapan Coalition won GE14 on 9th May 2018. We have a new Government which, amongst others, emphasizes on the rule of law. In line with this, it is our understanding that tax audits will continue to be a major strategy of the Inland Revenue Board (“IRB”) as they strive to ensure that taxpayers comply with the relevant tax rules.

Specifically on transfer pricing, a major focus area in almost all tax audits carried out by the IRB is in relation to “intra-group services”. Based on our experience, businesses are still unfamiliar with the requirements involved to ensure transfer pricing compliance and meeting the IRB’s expectations. To help businesses, we have put together a Masterclass workshop to help you grapple with the associated complexities.

Bonus session with our experts on the implications of Service Tax on Intra-Group Services.
