As part of the Malaysian government’s initiative to enhance tax administration the Lembaga Hasil Dalam Negeri Malaysia (“LHDN”) is implementing e-Invoice - a digital representation of a transaction between a supplier and a buyer. This will eventually, replace paper-based or electronic documents such as invoices, credit notes, and debit notes, while still capturing the same essential information as traditional documents, which record transaction data for business operations. You may visit LHDN’s website on this nationwide initiative for further information.

In line with LHDN’s initiative, Principal Asset Management Berhad and Principal Islamic Asset Management Sdn Bhd along with the funds under management (collectively known as “Principal”) will begin issuing e-Invoices in compliance with LHDN’s requirement in stages, starting from 1 July 2025,  in accordance with LHDN’s implementation timeline.

To facilitate the issuance and receipt of e-Invoices for all fees, and charges paid to Principal Asset Management Berhad and Principal Islamic Asset Management Sdn Bhd, and transactions with the funds management, we kindly request your assistance in updating your details such as Tax Identification Number (TIN), Business Registration Number (BRN) and Sales and Service Tax (SST) Registration Number (if applicable) and other relevant information for purposes of generating e-Invoices via the Profile Update Form in the links below.

What you need to know:

• If you complete and submit the Profile Update Form: 
  Principal will issue e-Invoice(s) to you for any applicable transactions for the purpose of e-Invoice issuance in stages starting 1 July 2025, in line with  LHDN’s implementation timeline.
• If you do not submit the Profile Update Form: 
  Principal will not be able to issue e-Invoice(s) to you for any applicable transactions starting 1 July 2025, in stages, as required by LHDN.

Please note:
If the submitted Profile Update Form is incomplete, inaccurate or if your TIN Validation Status is invalid, we will not be able to issue e-Invoices for your transactions with Principal. Additionally, any data mismatch between your submission and LHDN’s records or other reasons beyond Principal’s control, may result in our inability to generate your e-Invoices, even if the Profile Update Form has been submitted.
