The project started in 2014 with the objective of mapping all taxpayers and their information in a centralized platform with the ability to draw and assign operation boundaries to tax office branches. The tax information and taxpayer locations can be updated while tax officers implement on-site tax census using portable devices such as iPad. The platform is developed using TuxGeo+ map platform, powered by Google Maps API. Using the platform, tax offices in Malaysia are now able to get a holistic view of their operation boundary and taxpayers’ information inside it. The information provided in the platform includes taxpayer’s location, unique tax ID, personal or business identification and information and tax filing history. These are imperative to label the taxpayers by their tax filing submission and subsequently their status on the map. Tax officers can now actively target the area with high concentration of late payment or late filing with campaigns and operations. Over the years, the project has seen multiple enhancements to cater to the more complex workflows and tax data ecosystem. The impact can be seen with higher efficiency tax campaigns and more awareness from tax officers about taxpayers in their operation boundaries.

• Malaysia

• Remote and rural communities
• IRBM staffers and Malaysian taxpayers

Because the system in online in nature, it embraces the go-green concept, no usage of papers is needed, and should a cataclysmic event like a pandemic occurred, GeoHasil users can still use the system, whenever and wherever they are.

This system is developed to enable IRBM to collect taxpayer information for statistical and analytical purposes. Apart from using the information obtained as a medium to enlarge the tax base, this system is also used to educate taxpayers and provide tax awareness to the Malaysia citizens, so that they are aware that paying their income tax is a collective, shared responsibility that needs to fulfilled, in order to make Malaysia more prosperous.
