Malaysia Updates E-Invoice Guidelines with New Exemptions and Rules

Malaysia’s Inland Revenue Board has released updated e-invoicing guidelines, refining regulations on self-billed transactions and introducing new exemptions. The revisions, published on January 28, 2025, affect both the e-Invoice Guideline (Version 4.1) and the Specific Guideline (Version 4.0).

Key updates include a list of international organizations exempt from issuing e-invoices and new conditions under which self-billed transactions can be consolidated. Additionally, buyers must now issue self-billed e-invoices for specific financial transactions, such as capital reductions and share redemptions.

The guidelines also clarify exemptions for interest payments, particularly for financial institutions, employee-employer transactions, and certain treasury services. Businesses impacted by these changes must align with the new regulations, with some provisions set for implementation by July 1, 2025.
