Nobody in your company owns the calendar.
Four deadlines. Different months. One that lands before the year starts.
1 week
to know what's due
Four deadlines, and the dates that go with them
Four, and only four
FORM C
Annual tax return
With the computation and MITRS. Within 7 months of your year end.
CP204
Tax estimate
Paid in instalments. Due 30 days BEFORE the basis period begins.
CP204A
The revision
If the estimate was wrong. 6th or 9th month.
FORM E
Employer return
With EA and CP8D, one per employee. 31 March.
+ e-invoice, monthly by the 7th, if you're in scope
+ dormant companies still file Form C and Form E
The deadline that actually catches people out
What it looks like
Form C. Everybody knows it, and there are 7 months to prepare it.
What's actually true
CP204. Due 30 days before the year it estimates even begins — and underestimating it carries a penalty.
Most companies don't miss it because they were careless. They miss it because it arrives before the year it's about.
The estimate is still yours to get right
Whoever files CP204 for you, an underestimate penalty lands on the company — not on the agent.
Underestimating your CP204 tax estimate carries a penalty under Malaysian tax law, whichever agent files it for you.
The one question that decides this
Tax agents file perfectly. Almost nobody is watching in between.
What a tax agent watches, and when
This month, any competent tax agent and OCTIS file the same forms the same way. The difference only shows up when CP204 falls due, 30 days before the year it estimates begins:
What's left to reconstruct when LHDN asks
LHDN is Malaysia's tax authority, and can ask a company to justify any filing after the fact; this adds up everything you would otherwise have to track down to answer them:
Before you commit
Tax filing isn't one of the two services OCTIS's published money-back guarantee covers — the guarantee page lists what is. What we do instead: tell you within one working week which forms your company must file this year and when, before you commit to a plan.
A December year end, worked
Here is what the 30-days-before rule works out to for a company whose financial year ends on 31 December:
This is why it surprises people — it predates the accounts, not the negligence.
The fixed fee, monthly
Same annual plan fee, shown as what it costs per month:
Find your turnover
Which row applies is decided by your company's annual turnover, not by a plan you choose:
| Turnover | Fee — fixed, per year |
|---|---|
| Dormant / non-trading | RM 899/year — was RM 1,100 |
| Up to RM 500,000 | RM 1,499/year — was RM 1,700 |
| RM 500,000 – RM 1,000,000 | Quoted directly — no published plan yet |
| RM 1,000,000 – RM 5,000,000 | RM 2,499/year — was RM 2,900 |
| Above RM 5,000,000 | Quoted directly |

My company is dormant. Do I still need to file?
Yes. A dormant company still submits Form C with a tax computation and files its employer return. Dormancy reduces the work — it does not remove the obligation.
What is CP204, and why is it in every plan?
CP204 is your estimate of this year's tax, paid in monthly instalments against it. It's due 30 days before your basis period begins, and can be revised in the 6th and 9th month using CP204A. Underestimating carries a penalty, which is why it's included rather than sold as an extra.
My turnover is between RM 500,000 and RM 1 million. Which plan?
None of the three published ones, and we'd rather say that here than let you guess. That band is quoted directly, on the same fixed-annual-fee basis. Send last year's filings and we'll come back within a working week.
Does this include my accounts or an audit?
No. These plans assume your accounts are already prepared — bookkeeping is the tile next door. LHDN penalties, audit fees and statutory charges are excluded too.
You didn't miss the deadline because you were careless.
It sat in a month nobody was looking at. Send last year's filings — we'll tell you within a week what this year needs.
