Malaysia has introduced a nationwide e-invoicing framework administered by the Inland Revenue Board of Malaysia (LHDNM). The system replaces traditional invoice documents with structured electronic invoice data that is submitted to and validated through the government’s MyInvois platform.

The mandate has been introduced progressively according to annual turnover or revenue. The largest taxpayers entered the system first in August 2024, followed by additional business groups throughout 2025 and 2026. Businesses below the applicable exemption threshold are currently not required to implement e-invoicing.

Malaysia’s e-invoicing requirements apply broadly to taxpayers conducting commercial activities in the country, subject to the applicable turnover thresholds and exemption rules.

Implementation has been phased according to annual turnover or revenue. Businesses with annual turnover or revenue below RM1 million are generally exempt under the current framework, while businesses exceeding the applicable threshold must implement e-invoicing according to the implementation rules established by LHDNM.

Businesses covered by the mandate must create electronic invoices containing the required structured transaction information and submit them to the MyInvois system for validation.

The framework covers B2B, B2C, and B2G transactions. Once an invoice has been submitted and successfully validated, MyInvois assigns it the relevant validation information and makes the validated document available as part of the electronic invoicing process.

Businesses therefore need processes capable of generating the required invoice data, submitting it to MyInvois, and handling validation responses and document statuses electronically.

Malaysia’s e-invoicing infrastructure is built around the government-operated MyInvois system. Businesses can use the MyInvois Portal or integrate their ERP and accounting systems directly with MyInvois through APIs.

Electronic invoice documents follow the UBL 2.1 standard and can be exchanged using structured XML or JSON data. Through the API model, business systems can submit invoices directly to MyInvois and retrieve validation results and document information as part of an automated invoicing workflow.
