FAQ RELATED TO 6% SST

Starting from 1 July 2025, the Malaysian Government has implemented a 6% service tax on education-related services provided to international students. We understand this change may raise questions, especially for students planning to study or already studying in Malaysia. This FAQ section is here to help you make sense of what’s taxed, what’s exempted, and how it affects you.

Please Note:

• Additional fees may be incurred to meet academic/Ministry of Education of Malaysia requirements (Bahasa Kebangsaan A is compulsory for Malaysians without a credit in SPM Bahasa Melayu).
• All fees are payable in advance. Full settlement of first semester fees is required upon enrolment. For subsequent semesters, full settlement of fees must be made on or before the commencement of that semester.
• The enrolment fee is strictly non-refundable except in the event student cannot be accepted due to non-fulfilment of minimum entry requirements (this does not include provisional/conditional offer). Students who withdraw on their own accord will be liable to pay an administrative fee.
• Refund of fees are subject to Taylor's fee policy. An administrative fee will be chargeable for approved refunds.
• For International Students: Tuition fees payable are in Ringgit Malaysia. Any shortfall arising from foreign exchange currency transactions to Ringgit Malaysia and bank charges will be borne by the student while any surplus will be reflected as excess payment.
• You are required to settle all fees, charges, debts, and any other specified amounts incurred during your enrolment.
• Fees are outlined in the official Fee Schedule and reviewed annually. Taylor’s reserves the right to revise the fee amount for any given semester.
• Full payment of first semester fees must be made upon enrolment or by the start of the semester. For subsequent semesters, full payment must be made before the semester begins.
• If you are applying for a scholarship or loan, you are still responsible for settling all due payments by the final payment deadline, even if there is a delay in disbursement.
• If you are taking only one module in a semester (including a repeat module), you will receive a 50% discount on the Resource Fee. If you are enrolled in more than one module, the full Resource Fee applies.
• A late payment charge of RM100 per week (up to a maximum of RM300) will be imposed on outstanding fees not paid by the due date. Students with overdue payments may be barred from classes and/or use of campus facilities.
• Students with unpaid fees or debts may have their academic results withheld and will not be permitted to re-enrol, attend classes, sit for examinations, or graduate until full payment is made or an approved repayment arrangement is in place.
• Taylor’s reserves the right to terminate your enrolment if payment is not received by the end of Week 6 of the semester.
