Good to know

Four things about these dates

The e-Filing grace period

In 2026, LHDN allowed 15 extra days for returns filed online: until 15 May for Form BE and 15 July for Form B. LHDN decides this each year, so plan for 30 April and 30 June.

Paying late costs more

Tax still unpaid after the due date is increased by 10%. Filing on time and paying on time are two separate duties.

CP500 instalments

If LHDN sends you a CP500 notice, you pay your tax in instalments every two months on the dates shown in the notice. We can ask for a revision if the amount is too high.

Companies and SMEs

A company files Form C within 7 months after its financial year ends, so the date depends on your year end. Partnerships file Form P by 30 June. We prepare and file both for our SME clients.

Bookkeeping for SMEs

Dates follow LHDN's 2026 filing programme and the Income Tax Act 1967 (Act 53). LHDN publishes a new programme each year and dates can change. If a date falls on a weekend or public holiday, check LHDN's announcement.
