Have you reviewed your historical e-Invoice submissions?

The Inland Revenue Board of Malaysia's (IRBM) e-Invoice Special Voluntary Disclosure Programme (SVDP) provides businesses with a limited-time opportunity to voluntarily rectify historical e-Invoice errors. It also reflects IRBM's commitment to supporting taxpayers as Malaysia transitions to a fully digital tax ecosystem.

If your business has concerns over historical e-Invoice submissions, now is the time to conduct a comprehensive review. Yeap Lay Suat, Executive Director of Tax at BDO Malaysia, highlights why businesses should review their historical e-Invoice submissions to identify gaps, rectify past errors, evaluate the SVDP, minimise future compliance risks, and ensure their e-Invoice processes remain aligned with IRBM's requirements.
