For companies with a Malaysia entity: we run monthly payroll with EPF, SOCSO/EIS, PCB/LHDN, payslips, and bank payments. No entity yet? Hire through EOR Malaysia instead.
Malaysia payroll combines EPF retirement contributions, SOCSO/EIS social security, and monthly PCB tax deductions under LHDN rules. We outsource the full gross-to-net cycle so HR teams do not manage multiple statutory portals alone.
Built for foreign HQs with a Malaysia entity. Need to hire without one? Use Employer of Record (EOR) — same specialist team, different employment model.
Calculate employer/employee EPF rates and prepare monthly KWSP submissions.
Handle SOCSO (PERKESO) and Employment Insurance System contributions by wage band.
Compute monthly PCB deductions and support LHDN reporting obligations.
Salaries, overtime, allowances, claims, and leave pay in one monthly process.
Generate Malaysia bank transfer files for payday.
Monitor EPF/SOCSO/PCB changes affecting employee costing.
Our Malaysia payroll compliance process typically covers EPF, SOCSO, EIS, and PCB/LHDN alongside core employment pay rules:
Rates, ceilings, and forms are set by local authorities and can change. We configure your payroll to current rules and notify you when updates affect costing.
Note: EPF/SOCSO/EIS percentages and wage ceilings are regulated and may change. We maintain live rates in your payroll calendar — see our Malaysia compliance guide for deeper detail.
A clear monthly cycle designed for accuracy, approval control, and on-time employee payments.
Submit joiners/leavers, attendance, overtime, allowances, and one-off payments before the agreed cut-off via our HR technology platform.
We calculate gross pay, EPF, SOCSO, EIS, and PCB/LHDN, and net pay, then produce draft payroll reports for your review.
Approve or request adjustments. Nothing is finalized without your go-ahead.
We prepare bank payment files and issue payslips so employees are paid on your payday.
Insurance and tax obligations are prepared for remittance/reporting according to Malaysia deadlines and your entity setup.
Foreign employers usually concentrate headcount in Kuala Lumpur / Greater KL (HQ and shared services), Penang (electronics and manufacturing), and Johor (cross-border ops with Singapore).

Corporate and shared-services teams needing English packs for overseas finance and Bahasa Malaysia payslips for local staff.
Plant and tech headcount with OT-heavy cycles and tight EPF/SOCSO cut-offs.

Monthly gross-to-net, payslips, bank files, and KWSP/PERKESO/LHDN support packs.
For employees under 60, employee EPF is commonly 11% while employer is 12%–13% depending on wage band. From age 60, schedules drop (often 4% employer / 0% employee). We configure age and wage bands per employee so month-end stays accurate.
