Don’t Lose Your RM2,500! 2026 Tech Tax Relief & e-Filing Deadline Guide


By Hamka Rosli April 28, 2026

The clock is ticking! With the April 30th manual deadline just days away and the May 15th e-Filing deadline approaching, it’s time to make sure you aren’t leaving money on the table.

In this video, we focus on the Lifestyle Tax Relief, which allows you to claim up to RM2,500 for the tech and gadgets you bought last year. If you bought a phone, laptop, or even paid for WiFi, the government is essentially “subsidizing” those costs, but only if you claim them correctly!

What we cover:

  • Key Deadlines: April 30 (Manual) vs. May 15 (e-Filing).
  • The Tech Checklist: What counts under the RM2,500 relief (Smartphones, Laptops, Tablets, and Internet bills).
  • Receipt vs. Invoice: Why your Shopee payment screenshot won’t save you during an audit and how to get the correct PDF invoice.
  • Pro-Tip: Why you should file tonight before the LHDN servers start lagging.

Stop scrolling and listen up! 📣 You have until May 15th to settle your e-Filing, but if you wait until the last minute, the LHDN website will be slower than a turtle. If you bought a phone or laptop last year, you can claim up to RM2,500 under Lifestyle Relief! How to do it right: 1️⃣ Go to Shopee/Lazada ‘Order Details’. 2️⃣ Download the Official PDF Invoice (NOT just a screenshot!). 3️⃣ Claim it under the ‘Lifestyle’ category. It takes 10 minutes and saves you a ton of money. Got questions? Drop them in the comments! #TaxSeason #eFiling #LHDN #MalaysiaTax #TechTips #MoneySaving #PriceShop #GadgetLover
