SST calculator Malaysia

Malaysia's SST has two parts: sales tax on taxable goods and service tax on taxable services. Pick the one on your invoice and the calculator adds it or takes it out.

Rates are the ones published by the Royal Malaysian Customs Department on the MySST portal.

The amount

How it's calculated

  1. Service tax is 8% on most taxable services.
  2. Food and beverage, telecommunications, parking, logistics, construction work, private healthcare and education services are at 6%.
  3. Sales tax is 5% or 10% depending on the goods, under the Sales Tax (Rate of Tax) Order.
  4. To add SST, the amount is multiplied by the rate. To take it out, the price is divided by one plus the rate.

An example

A RM250 restaurant bill with service tax at 6% comes to RM265, of which RM15 is SST.
