e-Invoice Outsourcing Services
e-invoicing, or electronic invoicing, is a system where invoices are issued, transmitted, received, and processed electronically. This method of invoicing is becoming increasingly popular as it streamlines the billing process, reduces paper use, and improves efficiency and cash flow. In Malaysia, e-invoicing is part of the government’s efforts to enhance tax administration and support the growth of the digital economy. It offers benefits such as improved accuracy, faster processing times, and better compliance with tax regulations.
At the firm, we offer e-invoicing services as part of our accounting and bookkeeping outsourcing services. Your sales invoices will be validated at our premise on a centralised basis before submission to your respective clients. Similarly, all purchase invoices will be monitored for its validation before payment. e-Invoicing is mandatory to all taxpayers engaged in all type of businesses either by way of B2B, B2C or B2G from 1 July 2025 onwards as imposed by Lembaga Hasil Dalam Negeri (LHDN). It comprises of validation of the following documents at near real time basis with LHDN, either via “Application Programming Interface (API)” or MyInvois Portal.
The documents that are required to be validation are:
- Invoice,
- Credit note,
- Debit note,
- Refund note and
- Self billed invoice.
Please refer to the attached flow chart photo of e-Invoice mechanism with LHDN’s portal for further understanding.
Please briefly take note that reimbursement of business expenses to employees will also be requiring e-invoicing validation. In addition, benefit in kind/perquisites as per pre-existing employment contract or company policy must also be validated. Transactions of non-business related, such as rental of private property between homeowner and tenant, will not be requiring e-invoicing validation with LHDN. Understanding the exemptions of e-Invoicing is equally important with those transactions required for validation under the law.
We encourage business owners to take a pro-active approach to make all the necessary arrangements, such as putting adequate processes and make ready necessary computer software/hardware to support e-invoicing before the 1 July 2025 deadline. Early preparation is recommended to avoid operational disruption when the mandatory reporting comes into force.
