What Is MyInvois?

Definition: MyInvois is LHDN's official platform for Malaysia's e-Invoice system. It provides both a free web Portal for manual submission and an API for software (like TxBilling) to submit e-Invoices automatically.

How MyInvois validation works

  1. An invoice is created (in the Portal or via API).
  2. It's submitted to LHDN's MyInvois system for validation.
  3. LHDN validates it in near real-time and returns a unique identifier and QR code.
  4. The validated e-Invoice, with QR code, is shared with the buyer as proof of a compliant transaction.

Should I use the free Portal or software?

If you issue only a handful of invoices per month, the free MyInvois Portal may be enough. Once you're spending real time on manual entry, need customer and inventory records, or want reports for your accountant, software like TxBilling starts saving more time and money than it costs.

FAQ

Is MyInvois the same as e-Invoice?

MyInvois is the LHDN platform/system; e-Invoice is the document format and process it validates. People often use the terms interchangeably.

Can I switch from the Portal to software later?

Yes — many businesses start on the free Portal and move to software like TxBilling once volume grows.
