Create a self-billed invoice
Audience: All users (SME) Time: 2 minutes
Sometimes you, the buyer, have to issue the e-invoice on your supplier's behalf: paying a freelancer, an individual not in business, a foreign supplier, or certain commissions and interest. LHDN calls this a self-billed invoice (document type 11). envoice creates it from the same New invoice form.
1. Start a new document as Self-Billed
Click + New document, then at the top pick Self-Billed Invoice. The buyer card relabels to Supplier , because on a self-billed invoice you record who you paid, not who you sold to.
2. Add what you bought
Under Line items, enter the description, quantity, price, and classification of the goods or services you received, exactly as for a normal invoice.
3. Enter the supplier
Fill in the Supplier TIN and Supplier name, plus ID type/value and address. For a foreign supplier with no Malaysian TIN, envoice fills the LHDN general TIN automatically , you only confirm the name and country.
4. (Optional) Hold for consolidation
If the supplier is an individual not in business, you can tick Hold for month-end consolidation to batch these into one monthly self-billed document instead of filing each one. Leave it off to submit immediately.
5. Submit
Click Submit self-billed invoice. envoice signs and files it to LHDN, and it validates within seconds , appearing in Documents as an Invoice (11).
Need to adjust a self-billed invoice later? Issue an adjustment note from it as usual , envoice automatically uses the self-billed note types (12 / 13 / 14). See Credit, debit and refund notes.
