New Employee & Exit Reporting (LHDN)
LHDN (IRBM) requires employers to notify them when an employee joins, leaves the company, or leaves the country. These forms are essential for keeping your tax records compliant and up to date.
AutoCount Cloud Payroll simplifies this process by allowing you to generate the correct forms automatically, ensuring timely and accurate submissions without manual errors.
CP22 Form
Purpose: Notify new hire to LHDN
Deadline: Within 30 days of joining
CP22A Form
Purpose: Termination Notification
Deadline: 30 days before leaving the company
CP22B Form
Purpose: Notify LHDN of employee’s death in public service
Deadline: Within 30 days of receiving notification
CP21 Form
Purpose: Employee leaving Malaysia
Deadline: 30 days before departing
Yearly Payroll Statutory Submissions
At the end of each year, employers must submit Form E to LHDN and provide EA Forms to employees. AutoCount generates both of these in PDF and text format for direct submission to the LHDN portal.
Form E + CPBD Report
Purpose: Employer declaration to LHDN on employee numbers & tax withheld
Due Date: By March 31 the following year
EA/EC Form Report
Purpose: Employee’s annual income & deduction statement
Due Date: By the end of February the following year
