Hi,
We moved to Malaysia couple of years ago. I am on EP and my spouse is currently on DP. She is now looking for jobs and we need some clarification on malaysian DP to EP switchover processes. I have tried searching the forum but couldn't find required information and hence created a new post.
1. Is exit from Malaysia necessary for DP holder to convert DP to EP category II/III?
2. Once on EP from DP, will it be necessary to pay Non Resident tax of 28%?
3. Will it be required to serve cooling off period of three months on change of employer and switching from EP III to EP II?
Note - DP holder is in Malaysia for more than 2 years.
Any help in this regard will highly be appreciated.
Thanks,
Asim.
