INTRODUCTION
It was announced in Budget 2022 that tax exemption on foreign source income (FSI) will be removed with effect from 1 January 2022. Subsequently, on 30 December 2021 the Ministry of Finance announced that exemption from income tax will be given for a period of five years from 1 January 2022 on certain categories of FSI. The relevant Gazette Orders and Guidelines were subsequently issued by the MOF and HASiL. With the changes in tax treatment on FSI, it is imperative for taxpayers to better prepare for the changes to ensure compliance with the relevant legislation.
