A sole proprietorship is basically the simplest form of business ownership there is, and in Malaysia, it is governed by the Registration of Businesses Act 1956. It is the lowest cost option to starting a business, making it a popular option for many aspiring entrepreneurs who may not necessarily have the money to begin a private limited company (Sdn Bhd).

With a business, you can reduce your taxable income by incurring business expenses or claiming capital allowances (depreciation expenses) for the purchase of assets (more than RM 2,000). With that, you move to the lower tax bracket which will greatly reduce the overall tax payable for the year.

Do note that deductions cannot be more than the statutory income of your business!
