Why does the Company require me to pay the outstanding 6% Service Tax on my general insurance premium?
As your policy is effective from 1 August 2018, you need to pay 6% Service Tax on the general insurance premium for the period from 1 September 2018, being the effective date of Service Tax, until the expiry of your policy of 31 July 2019 in accordance to the Service Tax Act 2018.
If my general insurance premium is RM1,200 per annum. How much Service Tax do I have to pay?
The 6% Service Tax is applicable to the period from 1 September 2018 to 31 July 2019 which covers 11 months. The service tax outstanding from your policy is calculated at RM1,200 premium per annum x no. of days/365 x 6% Service Tax. Therefore the amount of Service Tax payable is RM66.
