About Us

Working out Malaysian income tax shouldn't mean a spreadsheet and an afternoon with LHDN schedules. Most people just want to know three things: how much tax they'll owe this year, whether the PCB on their payslip looks right, and what they can still claim. This site answers those in a couple of minutes.

• Monthly PCB calculator: estimates your Potongan Cukai Bulanan using LHDN's computerised calculation method, along with EPF, SOCSO, EIS and your take-home pay.
• Yearly tax calculator: a step-by-step walk through income, reliefs, rebates and zakat, ending with your chargeable income, tax payable and effective rate.
• Increment comparator: shows how much of a pay raise actually reaches your bank account.
• Guides: plain explanations of reliefs, PCB, EPF, residency and side-income tax, with worked examples in ringgit.

Everything is available in English and Bahasa Melayu.

Calculator figures use a central, admin-maintained rule set. Guide text and illustrations are maintained separately and need their own review when rules change.

Compare the applicable assessment year with HASiL tax rates, HASiL relief schedules and PCB specifications and TP1/TP3 forms. Contribution estimates use percentage approximations; the statutory wage-band tables can produce different payroll figures.

We publish educational estimates. We do not claim that these calculators are certified payroll software or that every guide has been reviewed by a licensed tax agent. Report an error through our contact page.

The calculators don't need to store anything, so they don't. Your salary and relief figures are used for a single calculation and then discarded. More detail is in our Privacy Policy.

We're an independent educational site, not affiliated with LHDN or the Government of Malaysia. We check our figures carefully, but results are estimates and everyone's situation is different. For advice on your own tax, speak to a licensed tax agent approved under Section 153 of the Income Tax Act 1967, or confirm your assessment on MyTax e-Filing.

The site is free to use and is supported by advertising. Some guides may in future include clearly labelled affiliate links. Neither advertisers nor affiliate partners have any say in the tax figures or in what we write.
