E-Invoicing Malaysia - The Timeline

E-Invoicing Malaysia - The Timeline

Introduction

An e-Invoice is a digital representation of a transaction between a supplier and a buyer. e-Invoice replaces paper or electronic documents such as invoices, credit notes, and debit notes.

An e-Invoice contains the same essential information as a traditional document, for example, supplier’s and buyer’s details, item description, quantity, price excluding tax, tax, and total amount, which records transaction data for daily business operations.

Is e-invoicing mandatory in Malaysia?

Malaysia will introduce a countrywide e-invoicing mandate in June 2024.

The Malaysian government plans to introduce a Centralized Pre-Clearance CTC model on all transactions to increase efficiency and strengthen the tax administration. A gradual introduction of the obligation will commence in June 2024 and end in 2027.

e-Invoice Implementation Timeline:

e-Invoice will be implemented in phases to ensure a smooth transition. The roll-out of e-Invoice has been planned with careful consideration, taking into account the turnover or revenue thresholds, providing businesses with sufficient time to adapt.

Below is the e-Invoice implementation timeline:

  • 1 June 2024 : Taxpayers with an annual turnover or revenue of more than RM100 million

  • 1 January 2025 : Taxpayers with an annual turnover or revenue of more than RM50 million and up to RM100 million

  • 1 January 2026 : Taxpayers with an annual turnover or revenue of more than RM25 million and up to RM50 million

  • 1 January 2027 : All taxpayers and certain non-business transactions

Important notes :

  • Taxpayers may volunteer to implement e-Invoice at an earlier date, regardless of annual turnover or revenue.

  • The obligation to implement e-Invoice would be independent of the turnover or revenue amounts in the following FY.

  • Revenue is based on audited financial statements for the financial year ending 2022 on taxpayers with audited financial statements. Otherwise will rely on tax returns for the year assessment 2022.
