PUTRAJAYA: The Inland Revenue Board (LHDN) has introduced a new information search platform using the WhatsApp application. In a statement on Thursday (Jan 15), LHDN said taxpayers would be able to receive tax updates, payment reminders, notifications on arrears and compliance alerts through the WhatsApp application via their registered mobile numbers. Meanwhile, an enhanced enquiry platform known as Tanya Hafy will replace the previous version, Tanya@HKC, on the official LHDN portal. "This information search feature offers a self-service approach that is more systematic, relevant and efficient," it said. LHDN said the introduction of the Hasil WhatsApp application and the Tanya Hafy platform is expected to add value for taxpayers by improving access to important tax-related information.
