What Is the e-Invoice Special Voluntary Disclosure Programme?

Malaysia’s e-Invoice Special Voluntary Disclosure Programme, or SVDP, allows eligible taxpayers to address certain missing, incorrect or non-compliant e-Invoices relating to periods after their mandatory e-Invoice implementation date. The programme runs from 7 July 2026 until 31 December 2027. Submitting a document under SVDP does not automatically guarantee protection from penalties. Every disclosure must still be accurate, complete and submitted according to the applicable LHDN requirements. For detailed information about SVDP eligibility, document versions, RM10,000 transactions, monthly consolidation and self-billed e-Invoices, read our Malaysia e-Invoice SVDP Guide.

Before processing an SVDP submission, users must first enable the function in AutoCount Accounting.

Submit Transactional e-Invoices Under SVDP

The checkbox is available for the following document types:

After the document has been validated, cross-check it through the MyInvois Portal. The AutoCount guide shows a validated SVDP transaction displaying Invoice Version 1.3. AutoCount also provides an e-Invoice SVDP column in the transaction command form, allowing users to identify documents submitted through the programme. The transaction-level SVDP checkbox is scheduled to be disabled or greyed out after 31 December 2027.

Consolidated e-Invoice SVDP Support

AutoCount V2 Rev 45 also supports SVDP submissions for consolidated e-Invoices. Go to: e-Invoice → Consolidated e-Invoice → New The Generate Consolidated e-Invoice window includes an e-Invoice SVDP checkbox. Select this option when generating an eligible consolidated e-Invoice for voluntary disclosure.   Previously unsubmitted consolidated e-Invoices should be organised according to their relevant transaction month. Transactions covering several months should not be combined into one consolidated submission.

How AutoCount Detects Possible Late Consolidated Submissions

AutoCount V2 Rev 45 can identify a possible late consolidated e-Invoice submission by comparing the generation date with the selected transaction period. The system applies the following detection logic:
Generation Timing Selected Transaction Period Possible Late Submission
On or before the seventh day of the current month Previous month No
On or before the seventh day of the current month Two months earlier or more Yes
After the seventh day of the current month Previous month Yes
After the seventh day of the current month Earlier periods Yes
For example, if the current month is July 2026:
Generation Date Consolidated Period System Detection
7 July 2026 June 2026 Not detected as late
7 July 2026 March 2026 Detected as possibly late
20 July 2026 June 2026 Detected as possibly late
20 July 2026 March 2026 Detected as possibly late
When a possible late submission is detected, AutoCount prompts the user to consider submitting the consolidated e-Invoice under SVDP. If the SVDP setting has not been enabled, the system will first prompt the user to enable it.
AutoCount possible late consolidated e-Invoice submission warning
AutoCount’s detection is a review prompt. It helps identify a potentially late period, but it does not independently determine whether the transaction is legally eligible for SVDP.

Responding to the Late-Submission Warning

When AutoCount displays the possible late-submission warning:
Continuing without SVDP does not automatically mean that the submission method is compliant. Review the selected period and confirm the appropriate treatment before proceeding.

Warning for Consolidating Transactions from Multiple Months

AutoCount warning shown when transactions from multiple months are selected for one consolidated e-Invoice.
Previously unsubmitted consolidated e-Invoices should be prepared according to the relevant transaction month. Businesses should not combine transactions from several months into one consolidated e-Invoice.
For example, if consolidated e-Invoices were missed for January, February and March, prepare three separate consolidated e-Invoices:
AutoCount displays a warning when transactions from more than one month are selected for a single consolidated e-Invoice.
When the warning appears:
The warning does not completely block the user from continuing. Treat it as an alert to review the date range before submission.

Track and Check SVDP Submissions

AutoCount V2 Rev 45 provides an e-Invoice SVDP column in the relevant transaction and consolidated e-Invoice command forms.
The column helps users:
AutoCount e-Invoice SVDP tracking column in the transaction listing
Check the Submission in AutoCount
Check the Submission in MyInvois
Checking both systems helps confirm that the document was transmitted, validated and recorded correctly.

Improved Self-Billed e-Invoice Filtering

In addition to the new SVDP functions, AutoCount V2 Rev 45 adds two filtering columns to the Self-Billed Command Form and Self-Billed Print Listing:
These columns make it easier to locate and review self-billed documents according to their year and reporting month. If the columns are not displayed, add them through the Column Chooser in the relevant Self-Billed Command Form or Print Listing. This improvement can help users review historical self-billed records more efficiently when checking earlier reporting periods.
