The Inland Revenue Board of Malaysia launched the e-Invoice Special Voluntary Disclosure Programme (Program Khas Pengakuan Sukarela e-Invois) on 7 July 2026, running to 31 December 2027. It is open to taxpayers who implemented e-Invoice on their mandated timeline but did not fully submit e-Invoices for certain transactions, who submitted e-Invoices containing errors or non-compliant data, or who have not submitted e-Invoices at all since their mandatory commencement date. Voluntary correction or disclosure through MyInvois during the window is not subject to any penalty. The programme is also set out in section 17 of the IRBM e-Invoice Specific Guideline (Version 4.8, dated 7 July 2026). The government also agreed to allow accelerated capital allowance claims, in full within one year, for ICT equipment and software development or modification costs incurred for e-Invoice implementation.
What changed in detail
The Inland Revenue Board of Malaysia launched the e-Invoice Special Voluntary Disclosure Programme (Program Khas Pengakuan Sukarela e-Invois) on 7 July 2026, running to 31 December 2027.
It is open to three groups: taxpayers who implemented e-Invoice on their mandated timeline but did not fully submit e-Invoices for certain transactions; taxpayers who submitted e-Invoices containing errors or non-compliant data; and taxpayers who have not submitted e-Invoices at all since their mandatory commencement date. Voluntary correction or disclosure through MyInvois during the window is not subject to any penalty. The programme is also set out in section 17 of the IRBM e-Invoice Specific Guideline (Version 4.8, dated 7 July 2026).
Separately, the government agreed to allow accelerated capital allowance claims, in full within one year, for ICT equipment and for software development or modification costs incurred for e-Invoice implementation.
What it means
An eighteen-month amnesty is an unusually candid admission that the first waves did not go cleanly. It is worth running a completeness reconciliation — submitted e-Invoices against ledger revenue, by month, since your start date — because the programme covers gaps you may not know you have, and the window is long enough to fix them properly rather than in a panic. The accelerated capital allowance is the quieter half: it changes the payback maths on remediation spend you were going to incur anyway.
