Taxpayers are expected to review this message and take corrective action based on the details provided. Below are the recommended steps for handling invalid E-Invoices.
Alert:
The recommended actions provided are suggested steps to help resolve invalid E-Invoice issues. To ensure compliance with LHDN Malaysia’s validation process, kindly verify that the actions taken meet regulatory requirements. The taxpayer bears full responsibility for compliance.
