PCB (Potongan Cukai Bulanan) Monthly Tax Deduction

Updated: Apr 1



PCB (Potongan Cukai Bulanan) Monthly Tax Deduction


PCB in Malaysia stands for "Potongan Cukai Bulanan," which translates to "monthly tax deduction" in English. It is a system where employers deduct taxes from their employees' salaries on a monthly basis and remit them to the Inland Revenue Board of Malaysia (LHDNM).


There are two main ways for employers to calculate and remit PCB:


  • Kaedah Pengiraan Penggajian Berkomputer (KPPB): This is a computerized payroll system approved by LHDNM. Employers who use this system can generate PCB reports and submit them electronically.

  • e-Jadual PCB: This is an online tool provided by LHDNM that allows employers to calculate PCB manually. Employers can then submit their PCB reports electronically through the e-Data PCB system.


The PCB amount is determined by the employee's income tax bracket. Employers are required to deduct PCB from employees' salaries and remit it to LHDNM by the 15th day of the following month.


Employees can check their PCB status and make any necessary adjustments through the e-CP39 system on the LHDNM website.
