Car dealers can claim sales tax refund

PETALING JAYA: Local car companies can claim the 10% sales tax on unsold stock after the implementation of the goods and services tax (GST) – if they can produce documented proof of purchase.

“If you’re holding stocks that had been paid for, you will get a full refund if you can produce the invoice that shows you have paid the sales tax,” said a customs officer who cited the GST Act 2014.
