The tax is also imposed on taxable goods imported into the Federation Sales tax is imposed on imported goods at the point of entry. The significant of this research were to examine the effect of this issue towards construction sector. Data were collected from several parties and questionnaire were constructed to meet the objective that has been outline. The analyzed data has shown that the Government really needs to reconsider again about applying Goods and Services Tax to the construction industry.
