Peppol Malaysia E-Invoicing: MY PINT Integration Explained

Table of Content
Peppol Malaysia E-Invoicing MY PINT Process Flow from ERP to MyInvois

Peppol Malaysia E-Invoicing connects European and Asian markets through standardized invoice formats. Anyone working with Malaysian business partners or looking to extend their Peppol reach to Asia cannot avoid MY PINT. Malaysia has been rolling out a phased e-invoicing mandate since August 2024 – relying on Peppol as a voluntary but strongly promoted transmission method.

In this article, we’ll show you what MY PINT technically means, how the integration works, and why it’s interesting for German companies – even without a Malaysian subsidiary.

What is MY PINT in the context of Peppol Malaysia E-Invoicing?

MY PINT stands for Malaysia Peppol International Invoice – the localized version of the global PINT standard (Peppol International Invoice) for Peppol Malaysia E-Invoicing. It’s a technical specification based on PINT (Peppol International Invoice),
adapted to Malaysian tax and business requirements.

Technical basics:

  • Format: OASIS UBL 2.1 XML
  • Basis: PINT (Peppol International Invoice)
  • Localization: Sales and Service Tax (SST) instead of VAT
  • Integration: MyInvois platform of the Malaysian tax authority (IRBM)

MY PINT is the bridge between the Peppol network and Malaysian e-invoicing compliance. Anyone sending to Malaysian partners via Peppol automatically uses MY PINT – similar to how Peppol works with XRechnung/ZUGFeRD in Germany.

Why is Peppol Malaysia E-Invoicing relevant?

  • Peppol Malaysia E-Invoicing has been gaining significance since August 2024. Malaysia is rolling out a mandatory e-invoicing system. By July 2026, all companies with annual revenue above RM 500,000 (approx. €110,000) must validate electronic invoices through the MyInvois platform.

    In parallel, the Malaysia Digital Economy Corporation (MDEC) actively promotes the use of Peppol. As the official Peppol Authority, MDEC accredits Peppol Service Providers and builds the infrastructure for cross-border document exchange.

    For German companies, this means:

    • Malaysia becomes Peppol-compatible – just like EU countries
    • One Peppol Access Point serves EU + Asia
    • Synergies with German e-invoicing mandate from 2027/2028
    • Preparation for additional ASEAN countries (Singapore, Japan also use Peppol)

    Fun Fact: Malaysia is only the second Asian country after Singapore to establish Peppol as national e-invoicing infrastructure. Thailand and Vietnam are already evaluating similar systems.

Do German companies need to use MY PINT?

Clear answer: No, not mandatory.
For Peppol Malaysia E-Invoicing, there are different approaches. Foreign companies without a Malaysian subsidiary are not required to use the MyInvois system.

Two scenarios:

Scenario 1: You export to Malaysia (without Peppol) Your Malaysian customer handles so-called self-billing: They create an e-invoice for MyInvois based on your regular invoice. You don’t need to change anything.

Scenario 2: You use Peppol for Malaysia business If you already use a Peppol Access Point (e.g., for German e-invoicing mandate or EU trade), you can use the same access for Malaysia. Your Peppol provider automatically converts to MY PINT format and transmits to the Malaysian partner. They then validate with MyInvois – you only notice this indirectly.

Peppol advantage: Automation instead of manual processes. Particularly useful for regular deliveries or container logistics.

How the integration works – Step by step

Variant A: Without Peppol (manual)

  1. You create a regular invoice in your ERP/SAP
  2. You send PDF/EDI to Malaysian customer
  3. Customer creates self-billed e-invoice for MyInvois
  4. Customer pays – done

Variant B: With Peppol Access Point (recommended approach)

  1. Your ERP/SAP creates invoice
  2. System sends data to your Peppol Access Point provider
  3. Provider converts to MY PINT (UBL 2.1 XML)
  4. Transmission via Peppol network to Malaysian partner
  5. Partner system sends to MyInvois for validation
  6. MyInvois generates Unique Identifier Number (UIN) + QR code
  7. Partner receives validated invoice – payment processed

The key point: Steps 3-7 run fully automatically in the background. You work in your familiar system – Peppol handles the rest.

What else you need to know

In practice, MY PINT is mainly relevant for companies that regularly deliver to Malaysia. For occasional exports, the manual variant (self-billing by partner) is perfectly sufficient.

Important to know: Malaysia uses Sales and Service Tax (SST) instead of value-added tax. MY PINT is configured accordingly – unlike European Peppol formats that map VAT. Good Peppol providers handle these differences automatically.

Container EDI meets e-invoice: Particularly interesting for logistics and maritime industries. Those already sending EDI messages (DESADV, IFTMIN) to Malaysia can transmit e-invoices via the same Peppol channel. One system for transport data AND invoices – that saves interfaces.

MY PINT via Peppol requires MDEC accreditation as a Peppol Service Provider.
For direct integration without Peppol intermediation, the MyInvois (IRBM)
direct approach is often more pragmatic.

Frequently asked questions about Peppol Malaysia E-Invoicing & MY PINT

What’s the difference between MY PINT and PINT? PINT is the global standard from OpenPeppol, MY PINT is the Malaysian variant with local adaptations (SST instead of VAT, specific fields for IRBM compliance). Technically, both are based on UBL 2.1 XML.

Do I need a Malaysian tax number? No. As a foreign supplier, you don’t need a Tax Identification Number (TIN) in Malaysia. Your partner uses a standard TIN for self-billing: “EI00000000030”

Can I continue using EDIFACT? Yes. Internally, you can use EDIFACT, SAP IDoc, or other formats. Your Peppol provider converts to MY PINT when needed. Similar to sending DESADV to SAP – different formats, one transmission channel.

Does my German Peppol Access Point work for Malaysia too?
Yes, if your provider is MDEC-accredited or works with accredited partners.
MDEC accreditation is fee-based and not available for all providers.
Alternative: Direct integration with MyInvois (IRBM) without Peppol intermediation.

How long does validation at MyInvois take? Usually a few seconds to minutes. MyInvois operates as a clearance platform in real-time – similar to Latin American e-invoicing systems.

Our tip: Peppol Access Point for EU & Asia

MY PINT via Peppol requires MDEC accreditation as a Peppol Service Provider.
At BESITEC, we focus on direct integration with the MyInvois platform (IRBM) –
pragmatically via existing EDI infrastructure.

Our approach:

  • Direct SAP/ERP integration with MyInvois (IRBM)
  • Automatic format conversion for Malaysian compliance
  • One system for German e-invoicing mandate + international partners
  • Support for testing & production rollout with Malaysian partners

Whether automated from ERP or manually via web.edi interface, the main
thing is that your e-invoice arrives securely and compliantly at your
Malaysian partner. Particularly relevant for industries with regular
Asia business: Automotive, chemicals, mechanical engineering, container logistics.

Conclusion: MY PINT integration – technically solid, practically sensible

Peppol and Malaysia fit together – technically clean via MY PINT, practically through MDEC as Peppol Authority. For German companies, integration makes sense when Malaysia business runs regularly and automation adds value.

The self-billing option relieves foreign companies of compliance pressure, but those already using Peppol for Europe gain an additional target country through Malaysia integration – without new infrastructure. Similar to DESADV to SAP: Once properly set up, it runs automatically afterward.

Peppol Malaysia E-Invoicing shows how international e-invoicing standards can work. PINT as a global base, local adaptations (MY PINT), and Peppol as a network – that’s the blueprint for other ASEAN countries. Those entering now are prepared when Thailand, Vietnam, and Indonesia follow.
