PUTRAJAYA: The Inland Revenue Board's (LHDN) MyInvois portal can now be accessed to issue and send eInvoices.
A statement issued by LHDN on Saturday (June 29) said that the availability of the MyInvois portal proves the agency's commitment to ensuring the implementation of eInvois runs smoothly, especially among Phase 1 taxpayers who are required to use it from Aug 1.
"Through this latest development, taxpayers can submit eInvoices to the LHDN through two methods, namely Application Programming Interface (API) Integration (for companies with their own software systems) or the MyInvois portal which can be accessed for free at https://mytax.hasil.gov.my," it said.
It said the eInvois General Guidelines (Version 3.0) and eInvois Specific Guidelines (Version 2.2) have been uploaded on the eInvois microsite on the LHDN portal via the link https://www.hasil.gov.my/e-invoicing for reference and guidance to taxpayers.
"Software Development Kit (SDK) Version 1.0 has also been updated with the latest function, which is digital signature verification," read the statement.
The government intends to implement eInvoicing in stages to improve the efficiency of tax administration management in Malaysia, in line with the 12th Malaysia Plan, where one of the main focuses is to strengthen digital service infrastructure and digitalise tax administration.
eInvoicing will also enable near-real-time transaction verification and storage, catering for business-to-business (B2B), business-to-consumer (B2C) and business-to-government (B2G) transactions. - Bernama
