implementation plan, commencing on 1 August 2024. At this point in time, B2B E-invoicing will become mandatory in Malaysia for taxpayers with an annual revenue or income exceeding RM100 million (approximately \u20ac19.631.590). Subsequently, on 1 January 2025, E-invoicing will become mandatory for taxpayers with an annual revenue or income exceeding RM25 million (approximately \u20ac4.907.900). From 1 January 2026, compliance is required for businesses with annual revenue between RM\u202f1 million and RM\u202f5 million. Finally, the mandatory implementation of E-Invoicing will be extended to all taxpayers in Malaysia starting 1 July 2026. Ahead of the deadline for mandatory E-Invoicing, businesses are nevertheless allowed to submit electronic invoices to the Malaysian government on a voluntary basis (starting May 2024).<\/p><p>Currently all taxpayers undertaking commercial activities in Malaysia are subjected to the E-Invoicing requirements, with no applicable exemptions based on industry. Only for certain B2C transactions where the end consumer does not need an e-invoice for tax purposes, will a non-electronic invoice format also be allowed. The mandatory issuance of e-invoices is not limited to transactions in Malaysia, but also applicable to cross-border transactions. Malaysian businesses that fail to adhere to the legislation, will be penalised with a fine between RM200 and RM20,000 or imprisonment for a period of up to six months, or both.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-8743129 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"8743129\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-02123a3\" data-id=\"02123a3\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-33d90d3 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"33d90d3\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">How does the SAP DRC solution work?<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-006b9ba elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"006b9ba\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-3b0d0b2\" data-id=\"3b0d0b2\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-575ef36 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"575ef36\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>SAP launched their solution for B2B electronic invoicing on 31 May 2024, as part of their SAP Document and Reporting Compliance (DRC), Cloud Edition license. SAP DRC is an integrated solution that strives for long-term end-to-end compliance with various country-specific legal requirements all over the world (e.g. e-Factura Romania, KSeF requirements Poland, e-invoicing Israel, SAF-T).<\/p><p>In Malaysia, e-invoices must be validated by the MyInvois system before they are sent to the customer. After receipt of the government-approved invoice (via PEPPOL, mail or via direct access to the MyInvois system), the customer can reject (or supplier can cancel) the e-invoice within the next 72 hours. The submission of the e-invoice itself must occur in near real-time to allow the Inland Revenue Board of Malaysia (IRBM) to exercise effective control (or within 7 calendar days after month end for consolidated e-invoices). There is no timeframe restriction when issuing any e-invoice adjustments, such as a credit note or a debit note. Taxpayers are at liberty to follow their own company policies.<\/p><p>SAP\u2019s solution supports the automatic generation of eDocuments in the correct XML format (OASIS UBL 2.1), direct integration with the MyInvois system via a DRC Cloud connection (e.g. to obtain the QR code upon government approval), and a connection to the customer via e-mail and\/or the PEPPOL network. The following document types are supported by the SAP DRC solution:<\/p><ul><li>Invoices (Proof of Income and Proof of Expense)<\/li><li>Credit memos and debit memos<\/li><li>Buyer Issued Invoices (Self-Billing)<\/li><li>Consolidated invoices (summary of all documents that did not require an electronic invoice to be sent to the buyer, which is sent to the government on a monthly basis)<\/li><li>Cancellations (only allowed within 72 hours of validation)<\/li><\/ul>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-e1efaa5 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"e1efaa5\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-b37fbdc\" data-id=\"b37fbdc\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-172322c elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"172322c\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h3 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">The SAP document outgoing process flow for e-Invoicing compliance in Malaysia <\/h3>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-87b47d7 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"87b47d7\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-02c24c1\" data-id=\"02c24c1\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-3a9c5b0 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"3a9c5b0\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>To adhere to the Malaysian E-Invoicing requirements, SAP provides the standard \u2018SAP Document Compliance for Malaysia\u2019 solution.
