What is the difference between a tax audit and a tax investigation?
A tax audit generally reviews whether tax returns have been prepared correctly based on available records. A tax investigation is typically more detailed and may be conducted where LHDN suspects significant errors or non-compliance.
You should review the notice carefully, gather the requested documents, and seek professional advice as early as possible to ensure an appropriate and timely response.
Can professional representation help during a tax audit?
Yes. Professional representation helps businesses communicate effectively with LHDN, prepare supporting documentation, address technical tax issues, and manage the audit process more efficiently.
If your business has received an LHDN tax audit or investigation notice, timely professional assistance can help you navigate the process with confidence and minimise unnecessary disruption to your business operations.
