The tax deduction is calculated based on the employee’s monthly taxable income. This is based on the Tax Deduction Chart issued by the Internal Revenue Board of Malaysia (IRBM).
What is the Purpose of CP38 Deduction?
CP38 contribution is in addition to the existing PCB contribution amount. CP38 is used to pay off outstanding income tax.
What is the Difference between PCB and CP38?
CP38 is used to ease the burden of those who are required to pay tax immediately. By having the employer deduct a certain amount from their salary every month for a certain period of time, the employee will be able to manage their finances better and not be burdened by the large amount of tax payment.
CP38 contribution has to be instructed by the IRB. The amount deducted and the period of deduction must be instructed by the IRB.
PCB on the other hand is used to reduce the income tax payable during your annual income tax declaration.
