Taxation in Malaysia
Income of any person including a company, accruing in or derived from Malaysia or received in Malaysia from outside Malaysia is subject to income tax. However, income received in Malaysia by any person other than a resident company carrying on business of banking, insurance or sea or air transport for a year of assessment derived from sources outside Malaysia is exempted from tax.
To modernise and streamline the tax administration system, the self-assessment system was implemented for companies, sole proprietor, partnerships, cooperatives and salaried groups and the assessment of income tax is based on a current year basis.

For example, if you call Australia and the call lasts for 10 minutes and 20 seconds, the charge will be computed as follows:
Total duration = 10 minutes and 20 secondsCharge rate to Australia = RM0.09 (US$0.03) per block of 6 seconds Total duration (in seconds) = (10 minutes x 60 seconds) + 20 seconds = 620 secondsTotal unit charge blocks = 620 seconds /6 seconds = 104 unit blocksTotal charge = RM0.09 (US$0.03) x 104 = RM9.36 (US$2.93)
