PUTRAJAYA (April 26): The Inland Revenue Board (IRB) has extended the deadline for non-business taxpayers to submit their tax return form for the year of assessment 2023 via e-Filing from April 30 to May 15.

In a statement on Friday, the IRB said that the taxpayers comprise resident individuals (knowledge workers/expert workers/non-citizen workers holding key positions) and non-resident individuals.

The extension also involves non-resident individuals (knowledge workers), organisations, deceased persons' estate, and Hindu joint families, it said.

According to the IRB, the deadline for the submission of the tax return form for the year of assessment 2023 for the employer (company and Labuan company) category and the non-company/non-Labuan company employer category through e-Filing has been extended from March 31 to May 30.

It advised taxpayers to submit the tax return form, and pay their income tax within the stipulated period, to avoid any penalty for late submission of forms or any increase for late payment.

“Taxpayers are also advised to key in and update their personal and banking information accurately to assist in the tax refund process,” the IRB said.
