- Malaysia has introduced accelerated capital allowance rules to support e-invoicing, allowing faster recovery of ICT and software development costs for expenditures from 2024 to 2027.
- Eligible businesses can claim 20% initial and 40% annual allowances on qualifying capital expenditures.
- To qualify, businesses must be Malaysian residents, properly registered, comply with e-invoicing timelines, and not have received flexibility or other tax incentives for the same expenditure.
- Covered costs include ICT equipment and customised software development specifically for e-invoicing implementation.
- The rules exclude expenditures already benefiting from other tax incentives or allowances.
