In the newly proposed SST framework, registration of SST will be automatic for those who are GST registered and have met the criteria for SST registration. However, errors may happen whereby some companies may not meet the requirement for SST registration but are automatically registered for SST. How do you do if you are mistakenly registered under SST?
If you are caught in above situation, you will need to apply for SST cancellation.
According to our source of information, there are a list of documents that are required for the SST cancellation application. We’ve listed them down as below:
- Cancellation letter (including detailed reasons for the cancellation application)
- Town Council License
- Authorization letter (to authorize the custom department to cancel your SST registration)
- Latest Financial Statement (for sole proprietor, LLP & Partnership) / Latest Audited report (For Sdn Bhd) / Latest tax submission (For YA 2018 or YA 2017) /
- 3 sets of sales invoices
- Other relevant licenses (Compulsory for specific industries such as LMW license holder, Companies in Free tax zone area, etc)
All these documents need to be submitted to the custom department. For those who are in Johor, you can submit to the address below:
