CelcomDigi starts issuing LHDN-compliant e-invoices for customers

KUALA LUMPUR: CelcomDigi Bhd customers can now obtain e-invoices that comply with the Inland Revenue Board's (LHDN) requirements effective July 1.
CelcomDigi said the implementation supports LHDN's initiative to digitalise tax administration and provides customers with a more efficient and transparent way to manage their transaction records.
"The e-invoice is applicable only to transactions made directly with CelcomDigi, including purchases made via the CelcomDigi website or mobile apps.
"For transactions conducted through dealers, resellers, or third-party platforms, customers should request e-invoices directly from the respective providers, if available," it added.
Customers are required to complete a one-time registration at the CelcomDigi e-invoice Portal using their tax identification number, which can be obtained from the MyTax Portal.
For postpaid customers, registration with a billing account number is necessary to receive monthly e-invoices automatically via email.
For prepaid users, device purchases, or one-time transactions, customers must submit an e-invoice request through the portal by the third day of the month following the transaction.
For example, an e-invoice for a transaction made on July 12 must be requested by Aug 3.

Internship agreements not subject to stamp duty, MICSEA confirms

Lai says the clarification is both timely and essential, particularly for employers seeking to comply with legal requirements without unnecessary confusion. — Bernama photo KUCHING (July 5): Internship agreements are not required to be stamped as they do not constitute a formal employer-employee relationship, said the Malaysian Industrial and Commercial Employers Association (MICSEA), citing clarifications from the Inland Revenue Board (LHDN) FAQs. MICSEA president YK Lai said the clarification is both timely and essential, particularly for employers seeking to comply with legal requirements without unnecessary confusion. 'This clarification is crucial and welcomed, as it ensures that companies can continue to offer internships without administrative hurdles or added cost implications,' he said in a statement. 'With this, many employers can now confidently enhance their internship programmes without fear of non-compliance. It also ensures that internship opportunities will not be disrupted or deterred, supporting the government's initiative to prepare students to be industry-ready upon graduation.' He added that many companies view internship programmes as an important talent pipeline, and the assurance provided will allow them to contribute meaningfully to graduate employability and real-world exposure. In contrast, Lai said apprenticeship agreements do require stamping as they are considered formal employment relationships governed under the Employment Act 1955. He added that employment contracts that have been exempted may obtain a stamp duty exemption certificate. 'This implies that submission is optional, offering flexibility to employers with exempted pre-2025 contracts.' He further noted that employment contracts sealed from 2025 onward must be submitted to LHDN for stamping in accordance with subsection 4(1) of the Stamp Act 1949. To further promote voluntary compliance and ease the process, Lai proposed that LHDN allow for a one-time bulk submission of all employment contracts signed before Jan 1, 2025 to obtain the stamp duty exemption certificate. 'This initiative would encourage more employers to come forward and regularise their documents in an efficient, streamlined manner,' he said. He also called on all employers to review the full FAQs for better understanding and continue consulting with relevant experts where needed. 'MICSEA is working closely with all its members together with HR Edge Consulting Sdn Bhd (HRedge) and will issue further guidance to support smooth implementation via training with MyFreelys Academy, a certified HRDCorp Training Provider. 'We remain committed to supporting employers in navigating policy changes while maintaining fair, compliant practices,' added Lai. employment internship LHDN MICSEA stamp duty

TNB facing RM5 billion tax bill after Federal Court ruling

Published on: Friday, July 04, 2025 Published on: Fri, Jul 04, 2025 By: FMT Reporters Text Size: On Wednesday, the Federal Court ruled that TNB is a utility company, and not a manufacturing concern eligible to claim reinvestment allowance. PETALING JAYA: National utility company Tenaga Nasional Bhd is facing a RM5.05 billion tax bill following a Federal Court rulIng that it is not eligible to claim reinvestment allowance. Citing TNB's 2024 annual report, The Edge reported today that the Inland Revenue Board (LHDN) issued the company RM9.25 billion in additional tax assessments. Advertisement However, RM2.44 billion in penalties was waived through settlements. 'TNB paid RM1.76 billion in December 2020, leaving an estimated RM5.05 billion still outstanding,' the report by the financial portal added. Yesterday, it was reported that TNB's shares plunged a day after the Federal Court overturned a ruling in the largest corporate tax dispute in the country's history, resulting in losses of over RM3 billion in its market capitalisation. Its shares fell as much as 74 sen, or over 5%, to its lowest level since June 3, with the counter closing at RM14.02. On Wednesday the apex court overturned a Court of Appeal ruling that found the national utility company to be in the business of manufacturing electricity. It said TNB should actually have been considered a utility company under Schedule 7B of the Income Tax Act 1967 (ITA). The dispute arose when LHDN disallowed TNB's claim under Schedule 7A of the ITA on the basis that the generation, distribution and transmission of electricity did not constitute manufacturing of electricity. TNB had also argued that it was only a service provider. In 2022, the High Court allowed TNB's judicial review application to set aside LHDN's RM1.8 billion tax assessment for the year 2018. Two years later, the Court of Appeal upheld the High Court's ruling. TNB has already paid the sum. * Follow us on our official WhatsApp channel and Telegram for breaking news alerts and key updates! * Do you have access to the Daily Express e-paper and online exclusive news?

LHDN identifies 845 cases for action under Ops Tanjong in Penang

GEORGE TOWN: The Inland Revenue Board (LHDN) has identified 845 cases for audit and enforcement action in the 10th Tax Compliance Operation, codenamed Ops Tanjong, conducted around Penang. LHDN deputy chief executive officer (Compliance) Datuk Hisham Rusli said the operation, involving 238 officers, focused on key economic sectors, including manufacturing, electrical and electronics, digital and technology, logistics, contractors, and engineering. He said inter-agency collaboration will continue to be strengthened as a vital element of effective and sustainable governance. "The implementation of OP Tanjong demonstrates LHDN's readiness to adapt its compliance strategies to the local economic landscape, without compromising the principles of fairness and transparency. "We believe that integrated efforts like this will continue to be the foundation for a sustainable and transparent tax ecosystem, directly contributing to the country's fiscal capacity to support the national development agenda," he said in a statement on Thursday (July 3). He said the decision to conduct the operation in the state is a continuation of the LHDN's targeted initiative to strengthen fiscal accountability and ensure that fairness in the tax system is effectively implemented at the grassroots level. Six key activities were carried out during the operation, including tax audits, verification of taxpayer information, strategic compliance, collections, enforcement of stamp duty, and legal action. The approach also emphasises education by engaging directly with taxpayers to raise awareness of their rights and responsibilities within the national tax system. - Bernama
