E-invoice (LHDN MyInvois)

Also known as: MyInvois, LHDN e-invoice

E-invoicing under LHDN's MyInvois is Malaysia's system for issuing and validating invoices electronically through the Inland Revenue Board's platform.

An e-invoice is a structured digital record of a transaction that is submitted to and validated by the Inland Revenue Board of Malaysia (Lembaga Hasil Dalam Negeri, LHDN) through its MyInvois system, rather than a simple PDF or paper document. Once validated it becomes an official, traceable record for tax purposes and is shared between buyer and supplier.

For procurement, e-invoicing tightens the link between purchase orders, goods receipts and invoices, supports accurate tax reporting and reduces disputes over what was billed. Because scope and timelines are being rolled out in phases and can change, organisations should follow official LHDN guidance to confirm what applies to them and by when.

Key points

  • E-invoices are validated by LHDN through MyInvois, creating an official digital record.
  • Structured data makes matching invoices to orders and receipts more reliable.
  • Scope and timelines are phased — always confirm the current requirements with LHDN.
