// Frequently asked questions
What's the current MyInvois phase and threshold?
LHDN's MyInvois rollout has been phased by annual turnover: Phase 1 (>RM 100M) live since August 2024, Phase 2 (RM 25M-100M) from January 2025, Phase 3 (RM 500K-25M) from July 2025. Phase 4 covering all remaining taxpayers (including under RM 500K) is the current focus through 2026.
MyInvois JSON or PINT-MY — which one do we send?
MyInvois JSON is the primary submission format for B2B / B2G / B2C domestic transactions. PINT-MY (the Peppol variant) is required for inbound and outbound cross-border invoices via the Peppol network. Most businesses need both flows — they're not interchangeable.
What's the 72-hour validation window?
After submission, LHDN returns a UUID and validated status. The supplier and buyer each have 72 hours to cancel or reject. After 72 hours, the invoice is final — corrections require a credit/debit note that itself goes through MyInvois. Build the buyer-side rejection workflow into your AR/AP processes.
Which ERPs have native MyInvois connectors?
SAP DRC supports MyInvois from the 2024 release. Oracle Fusion via Tax Reporting Cloud + IRBM connector. Microsoft Dynamics 365 F&O has a localisation pack. Zoho Books, Odoo, and Xero have native modules. SAP ECC needs third-party middleware (Cygnet, Cleartax MY, etc.) — same vendors who do Indian IRP.
How does the MyInvois consolidation work for B2C?
Daily aggregated B2C invoices can be reported as a single consolidated document covering all retail transactions for the day, instead of per-receipt. This is the standard pattern for retail / F&B / e-commerce. Schema is the same MyInvois JSON, with a consolidated invoice type and aggregate amounts.
Are there penalties for late MyInvois submission?
LHDN's published penalty schedule starts at RM 200 per invoice and escalates. More material: late or missing e-invoices invalidate input tax claims for the buyer, which creates downstream pressure to fix supplier-side issues fast.
What's the archive requirement?
7 years from end of accounting period, consistent with Malaysia's existing tax record-keeping rules. Storage must preserve the original MyInvois JSON + LHDN's validation response. The portal makes records available for audit retrieval.
