SST was implemented on 1st September 2018 and your business may have applied for many SST exemptions and  returns to customs. The SST impact on businesses can be major if you are not well prepared (even you may not be a sales tax registrant) to ensure your business activities are SST compliant.  Businesses should start reviewing their exemption applied because SST is a transaction base and self- compliance tax system and heavy penalty imposed upon  failure to comply with the rules and regulation
