In this issue:

Principal Hub 2.0 Guideline

The Principal Hub (PH) incentive was introduced in 2015 with the objective of strengthening Malaysia’s position as a competitive regional and global operation base. Since its introduction, the PH incentive had been progressively enhanced, the latest being the concessionary income tax rate of 10% on the overall statutory income relating to the PH’s activities of existing companies, for 5 years, as announced in Budget 2019.

The Malaysian Investment Development Authority has now issued a new PH 2.0 guideline that incorporates the Budget 2019 announcement. 

The PH 2.0 guideline which supersedes the PH 1.0 guideline, is effective for applications received by MIDA from 1 January 2019 to 31 December 2020.
