MyInvois integration for Malaysian businesses.
LHDN-compliant e-invoicing wired into the systems you already use — no separate portal, no double entry. Combined with AI-driven document extraction and proper workflow automation, the whole invoice lifecycle goes mostly hands-off.
LHDN's national e-invoicing platform, in plain English
Every business invoice in Malaysia — sales, purchases, credit notes, debit notes — must be submitted to LHDN through MyInvois and validated before it goes to the customer. LHDN returns a unique identifier and a QR code that get stamped onto the final invoice.
You can do this manually through the MyInvois Portal, one invoice at a time. That works for very low volume. Past a handful of invoices a day, the re-keying time alone costs more than building an integration — and the error rate creeps up as soon as anyone is in a hurry.
The right answer for any SMB with regular invoice volume is API integration. Your team keeps invoicing exactly how they do now; MyInvois happens silently behind the button. We do the API plumbing, the field mapping, the sandbox testing, and the LHDN certification dance.
Both ends of the invoice lifecycle
3–6 weeks, four steps
Typical SMB MyInvois integration. Faster if your existing systems already have a clean API; longer if data needs cleaning first.
Document extraction makes the receiving side painless
MyInvois handles outgoing invoices cleanly. The pain on the incoming side is reading every supplier's slightly-different invoice format — and that's exactly the kind of work AI does well.
Common questions about MyInvois
What is MyInvois?
MyInvois is LHDN's national e-invoicing platform. Every business invoice — sales, purchases, credit notes, debit notes — must be submitted to LHDN through MyInvois and validated before it can be issued to the customer. The platform issues a unique identifier and a QR code that go on the final invoice.
When does my business need to be MyInvois-compliant?
LHDN has rolled out MyInvois in phases by annual turnover. Larger businesses came first; smaller businesses follow. Check the latest LHDN-published timeline for the phase that applies to your turnover band — and if you're getting close, build the integration before the deadline rather than at it.
Can't I just use the LHDN MyInvois Portal manually?
You can — for a low volume of invoices. But the manual portal becomes painful past a few invoices a day, and re-keying invoice data from your existing system is error-prone (and expensive in staff time). Most SMB factories with even modest invoice volume need API integration.
What does "wired into existing systems" actually mean?
Your team keeps invoicing the way they already do — same ordering portal, same accounting screen, same ERP. Behind the scenes, we intercept the invoice the moment it's issued, format it for the LHDN MyInvois API, submit, get back the unique identifier and QR code, and stamp them onto your invoice PDF. To your team it looks like one button. To LHDN it looks like proper API integration.
What systems do you integrate with?
Custom-built ordering and ERP platforms (we usually build these too — see our distribution platform case study), accounting packages with API access, and most modern Malaysian SMB ERPs. If your accounting is on a system without an API, we can run the integration against an export folder or as a small middleware layer.
How long does MyInvois integration take?
Typical SMB MyInvois integration ships in 3–6 weeks. The fastest part is the API plumbing; most of the time goes into mapping your invoice data correctly to LHDN's required fields, dealing with edge cases (refunds, credit notes, foreign customers), and testing in LHDN's sandbox before going live.
Can AI help with this?
Yes — especially on the receiving side. We've built AI-driven document extraction that reads incoming supplier invoices (PDFs, scans, emailed images) and turns them into structured data ready to enter into your accounts. Combined with MyInvois on the outgoing side, the whole invoice lifecycle becomes mostly hands-off.
