Place of supply for goods: treated as made in Malaysia when goods removed from a place in Malaysia to a place in or outside Malaysia Place of supply of services: Treated as made in Malaysia if supplier belongs in Malaysia, i.e. the business or fixed establishment or the usual place of residence is in Malaysia 31

33 Place of Supply - Goods Example 1: T Sdn Bhd which is located in Malaysia, imported one container of mandarin oranges from a supplier who located in China. This supply is a supply from a place outside Malaysia to a place in Malaysia. This transaction is an importation of goods and thus, is subject to GST at the point of import. Example 2: A toll manufacturer carries out drop shipment of goods processed or treated by him to a local customer of his overseas principal on the instruction of the overseas principal; the place of supply for the drop shipment of goods is in Malaysia 33

34 Place of Supply - Services Supplier belongs in Malaysia he has in that country a business establishment or fixed establishment and no such establishment elsewhere he has no such establishment in any country, but his usual place of residence is in that country; or he has such establishments both in that country and elsewhere and his establishment which is most directly concerned with the supply is in that country Recipient belongs in Malaysia he has in that country a business establishment or fixed establishment and no such establishment elsewhere he has no such establishment in any country, but his usual place of residence is in that country; or he has such establishments both in that country and elsewhere and his establishment which is most directly concerned with the supply is in that country 34

35 Place of Supply - Services Supplier belongs Recipient belongs Place of supply GST treatment Malaysia Malaysia In Malaysia Standard rated Malaysia Overseas In Malaysia Zero rated Overseas Overseas Outside Malaysia Overseas Malaysia Deemed supplied in Malaysia Out of scope Reverse charge mechanism 35

36 Place of Supply - Services Example 1: A firm located in Malaysia provides engineering services to a highway construction project in Mumbai to a company located in India. The supply of services is treated as made in Malaysia because the firm belongs in Malaysia. Since such supply is made in Malaysia to a company who belongs in India, it is treated as an export of services and subject to GST at zero rate. Example 2 : Malaysian company is awarded a contract overseas and set up a business establishment overseas. The services are provided there by its overseas establishment. The supply of services is outside Malaysia. Since the supply is made outside Malaysia to a company who belongs outside Malaysia, it is treated as out of scope. 36

38 Time of supply Earliest of the following dates : When goods are removed or made available, or when the services are performed or Receipt of payment or Issuance of tax invoice * * 21 day rule if tax invoice is issued within 21 days from (1) and no payment received before basic tax point, date of invoice is taken as time of supply 38

39 21 day rule Time of supply 15 July 25 July 1 September Goods removed / services performed BASIC TAX POINT Tax invoice issued (within 21 days) ACTUAL TAX POINT If tax invoice issued more than 21 days * * Time of supply : if tax invoice is issued after 21 days from the basic tax point, the time of supply will fall back to the basic tax point 39

43 Time of supply Continuous supplies of services When a supplier supplies services on a continuous basis for a consideration, and receives whole or part of payments periodically or from time to time. The time of supply for such services is at the earlier of the following: (i) when the tax invoice issued; or (ii) when payment is received. 43

44 Time of supply Retention payment When a customer withholds a percentage of the payment to the supplier until the satisfaction of conditions specified in the contract. The amount withheld is termed as retention payment and is not subject to GST until the money is released to the supplier. For retention of any part of a consideration by a person pending full and satisfactory performance of the contract, or any part of it, by the supplier, the time of supply of such supply is the earliest of the following: (i) when the tax invoice issued; or (ii) when payment is received. 44

45 Time of supply Example: A project costs RM100,000 and the contractor has completed the project. In his billing, he will have to account for GST as below: Amount (RM) Value of contract works 100,000 Less: Retention payment (5%) (5,000) Payment due 95,000 GST payable 5,700 The contractor has to account for GST when he receives the amount of retention payment of RM5,000 or when he issues an invoice relating to the retention sum, whichever is earlier. The amount of GST payable is RM

46 Time of supply Payment related to intellectual property The time of supply of such services is the earlier of the following: (i) (ii) when payment in respect of the use of the benefit of the services is received, or when tax invoice is issued by the supplier. However, if a further supply takes place and the consideration of the supply is not ascertainable at the time when the services are supplied, the time of supply is the earlier of the following: (i) (ii) when a payment is received; or when a tax invoice is issued. 46

47 Time of supply Example Cutie Garment Sdn Bhd (Cutie) enters into a contract with Comicku Baby Clothing Sdn Bhd (Comicku) which allows Cutie the rights to use Comicku patent on Cutie clothing for two years (2014 and 2015). In return Cutie has to pay RM104,000 monthly patent fees to Comicku and additional 2% of royalty payment from Cutie sales. Cutie sales for 2014 is RM10million and 2015 is RM20million, as such Cutie have to pay Comicku RM200,000 and RM400,000 royalty for 2014 and 2015 respectively. Comicku have to account for GST when they issue the tax invoice for the monthly patent fees of RM104,000. Comicku will have to account for GST subsequently when they receive the payment of royalty of RM200,000 and RM400,000 or issued tax invoice for the payment of royalty. 47

48 10) VALUE OF SUPPLY 48

49 Value of Supply Consideration General Rule Value = consideration GST portion Imported goods Value = customs value + custom duty + excise duty Imported services Value = Consideration paid No consideration Value = OMV GST portion Open market value ( OMV ) - Arm s length price supplied to an unconnected person Note : If value expressed in foreign currency, it must be converted to RM: At the daily exchange rate (selling rate) of any banks operating in Malaysia; or At the rate of exchange determined by the Customs in the case of imports of goods (Customs will issue foreign exchange rate weekly) 49

50 Value of Supply Application of OMV Disposal of business asset without consideration Private use of business asset without consideration Supply of business asset not for a consideration to connected person * Value of supply OMV of that supply OMV of the services OMV of the services * Connected person Officers or directors of one another s business Partners in business Person holding 5% or more of the outstanding voting stock/share One of them directly or indirectly controls the other Both of them directly or indirectly controlled by a third person Together they directly or indirectly control a third person Members of same family 50

51 Value of supply Hierarchy of OMV a. Consideration in money which goods/services generally fetch if supplied substantially, under the same circumstances at or about the same time in Malaysia, being a supply freely offered and made between persons who are not connected b. If cannot determine under (a), OMV is the value of similar supply in Malaysia c. If cannot determine under (a) or (b), the OMV is determined using reasonable means which provides objective approximation of the consideration in money 51

52 Value of supply Example: A customer purchased a printer and pays the supplier by exchanging his used computer for the printer. The open market value of the used computer is RM260. Hence, the value of the printer is the open market value of the used computer less tax i.e RM (RM260 x 100/106) 52
