Introduction
The transition to LHDN’s e-Invoice mandate represents a fundamental shift in Malaysian tax compliance. For businesses that have faced system hurdles, misinterpreted guidelines, or missed submissions during the rollout, the Special Voluntary Disclosure Programme (SVDP) provides a once-in-a-blue-moon opportunity to do it right. Starting from 7 July 2026, this initiative allows taxpayers to regularise their compliance and correct previous errors or omissions WITHOUT facing penalties.
However, this is your last chance for changes and rectification. Businesses must act Immediately, before LHDN’s e-Invoice audit teams arrive at your door.
To successfully secure the penalty waiver, all voluntary disclosures must be submitted in absolute good faith—meaning they must be entirely free from fraud, willful default, or negligence
