Tax assessment appeals made easier via MyTax portal - LHDN

The Inland Revenue Board of Malaysia (LHDN) has launched a new online service, e-Rayuan Taksiran, on its MyTax portal, allowing taxpayers to submit appeals for tax assessments and apply for extensions more easily. This digital transformation aims to streamline the service delivery system by moving away from the traditional manual process that required physical document submission.

According to LHDN, the new system makes the appeal process "simpler, faster, and borderless." Taxpayers can now submit their appeals or extension requests anytime, in real-time, and monitor the status of their applications throughout the process. Users will also receive instant notifications, such as confirmation of receipt, rejection, or approval of their extension requests, directly through the online platform.

While the e-Rayuan Taksiran service offers significant convenience, it does not cover specific tax types, including capital gains tax, withholding tax, and assessments arising from investigation activities. Individual taxpayers can access the service using their MyTax accounts, while companies and organizations can do so through their appointed directors, officers, or administrators.

LHDN anticipates that this digitization effort will enhance efficiency and simplify tax-related procedures for taxpayers nationwide, marking a significant step towards modernizing tax administration in Malaysia.
