KUALA LUMPUR, 21st FEBRUARY 2025 – AutoCount Dotcom Berhad (“AutoCount” or “the Group”), a leading provider of financial management software, welcomes the government’s decision to extend the E-Invoicing implementation deadline for micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs) to 1st January 2026.

While some may see this delay as a setback, AutoCount views it as a positive and strategic move that allows businesses to allocate resources efficiently, receive proper training, and transition into E-Invoicing at a manageable pace. By spreading out the adoption timeline, MSMEs can avoid the pitfalls of rushed implementation and compliance challenges.

“E-Invoicing remains a regulatory necessity, and businesses will need to comply. However, this delay offers much-needed breathing space for MSMEs to fully understand and integrate E-Invoicing into their operations smoothly and efficiently,” said Mr. YT Choo, Managing Director of AutoCount Dotcom Berhad.

Stepping Up Support for MSMEs

AutoCount is committed to helping businesses make the most of this additional time. The Group will expand its educational outreach, offering more training sessions, webinars, and industry workshops to ensure MSMEs are well-prepared. This proactive approach aims to reduce the learning curve and ensure a seamless onboarding experience when E-Invoicing becomes mandatory.

“E-Invoicing is more than just regulatory compliance—it’s a crucial step in business digitalisation and efficiency,” Choo added. “With this extension, we can provide MSMEs with structured guidance and support, ensuring they transition smoothly into the new system.”
