你的发票可能不被承认?e-Invoice 3 大雷区!

马来西亚 e-Invoice 上线后,很多老板和财务都以为只要「有发票」就安全,其实不然!⚠️ 一不小心踩到这些坑,支出可能不被承认、税务出问题:

图画版本

1️⃣ 不检查供应商发票真伪:
📌 已实施 e-Invoice 的供应商,必须开带有 二维码 + 验证码 的官方 e-Invoice。
没有这些标识=高风险,报税可能不被 LHDN 承认。


2️⃣ 忽略普通发票的合法性:
📌 如果供应商还没到 LHDN 规定的门槛,他们开普通发票依然合法。
重点是要留存完整记录和证明,确保报税时有据可查。


3️⃣ 不会「自开发票」(Self-Billed e-Invoice):
📌 以下情况你要自己开:

  • 向外国供应商采购

  • 付给个人或代理佣金

  • 平台或中介没开 e-Invoice

不会做自开发票=支出不被承认,账目直接受影响!


💡 总结

不要只等供应商给你发票,自己也要主动检查、主动开
✅ 发票真伪要确认
✅ 合法性要存档
✅ 自开发票要熟练

这 3 招,帮你少走弯路、省下税务麻烦!

Your Invoices Might Be Rejected? 3 e-Invoice Traps to Avoid!

Since Malaysia rolled out e-Invoice, many business owners and finance teams think “as long as I have an invoice, I’m safe.” ⚠️ Not true! Step into these traps and your expenses might not be accepted, leaving your taxes at risk:

中文版本

图画版本

1️⃣ Not Verifying Supplier Invoices:
📌 If your supplier is already on e-Invoice, their invoices must carry a QR code + validation code.
Without these marks = high risk, and LHDN may not accept them for tax purposes.


2️⃣ Overlooking the Legality of Regular Invoices:
📌 If your supplier hasn’t reached the LHDN threshold yet, a regular invoice is still legal.
The key is keeping full records and evidence to back up your claims during tax filing.


3️⃣ Not Using “Self-Billed e-Invoice” When Required:
📌 You must issue your own e-Invoice in cases like:

  • Buying from foreign suppliers

  • Paying individuals or agents commissions

  • Platform/intermediary didn’t issue an e-Invoice

Failing to self-bill = expense not recognized, profit affected directly!


💡 Quick Takeaway:

Don’t just wait for suppliers to send invoices be proactive and stay compliant:
✅ Verify invoice authenticity
✅ Store legal records
✅ Master self-billed e-Invoices

These 3 tips help you avoid trouble and save tax headaches!
