Nationwide Transition in 2026
Based on the newly released Budget 2026, Malaysia has affirmed that there will be no U-turn on the adoption of e-invoicing.
Scope of Transactions
E-invoices apply to B2B, B2C, and B2G transactions across all business operations.
Ready-to-Use Solutions
Compliance can be done through MyInvois Portal, API integration (e.g., SQL Account), or certified middleware.
Mandatory E-Invoice for High-Value Transactions
Any single sales transaction exceeding RM10,000 must be issued as e-invoice starting 1 Jan 2026. Consolidated e-invoices will no longer be accepted.
End of Relaxation Period
Early adopters must stop using consolidated self-billed e-invoices for foreign suppliers after 31 Dec 2025.
Turnover Threshold Compliance
Businesses with turnover exceeding RM1 million in the year 2022 are required to implement e‑invoicing starting 1st January 2026. Businesses with turnover between RM500,000 and RM1 million will start later, on 1 July 2026.
New industries Added to List
Starting from 1st Jan 2026, electricity and telecommunication industries are added into compulsory e-invoice industry list
Compliance Risks
Failure to comply may trigger penalties, delays in tax claims, or unwanted audit risks under ITA 1967.
