Impuestos y cumplimiento

Resident treatment: individuals present in Malaysia for 182 days or more are generally residents and taxed at progressive rates up to 30%; residents may be taxed on foreign-sourced income received in Malaysia subject to specific exemptions. Non-resident treatment: non-residents are generally taxed at a flat 30% on Malaysian-source taxable income and do not claim resident reliefs. Assumptions: effective rate uses the top resident PIT bracket; social contribution uses EPF employee statutory rate (11%) and excludes SOCSO/EIS variable elements. Confidence: medium (residency and non-resident rules are official; foreign-income and SST interpretation still uses secondary consolidation).

Method: Numbeo country data (USD display) retrieved 2026-02-27. Baselines are computed as (single-person monthly costs excluding rent) + (1BR outside-centre minimum / 1BR city-centre average / 1BR city-centre maximum) for poor/average/comfortable scenarios. Baselines: poor 712.35 USD, average 983.33 USD, comfortable 1330.14 USD. Numbeo last update: 27 February 2026. Cross-check: LivingCost (updated October 14, 2025) reports one-person total with rent 694 USD. monthly_coworking_usd is null due no reliable country-level coworking dataset. Confidence: medium (recent crowdsourced data with transparent formula, but local-city variance is high).
