  "summary": "The Inland Revenue Board (IRB) of Malaysia reported that as of October 1, 2026, more than 268,000 taxpayers had submitted a total of 1.99 billion e-invoices. These submissions were distributed across four phases of e-invoicing implementation, with the most recent phase, number four, involving 196,031 taxpayers. The implementation of e-invoicing occurs in stages, with the government recently increasing the exemption threshold from RM1 million to RM3 million, benefiting micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs) whose annual turnover is below RM3 million. The revised threshold, effective from September 1, 2026, exempts MSMEs with annual income or sales of less than RM3 million from the e-invoicing requirement.",
