Malaysia uses e-invoicing platforms, such as the MyInvois System run by the Inland Revenue Board (LHDN), to implement a fiscalization process. It utilizes a Digital-First, Software-Integrated approach, eliminating the need for mandatory fiscal devices. Any internet-connected device with relevant software will have to keep an eye on transactions by 2026. The official currency is the Malaysian ringgit (RM).

The issuing software creates transaction data in XML or JSON (UBL 2.1), containing up to 55 mandatory fields, applies a digital signature, and submits it to MyInvois for validation. After successful validation, it returns a Unique Identifier Number, timestamp, and QR code before sharing the validated e-invoice with the buyer.
