(TAX UPDATE) How to Use ChatGPT to Read and Understand LHDNM’s e-Invoice FAQ

Here’s How to Ask LHDNM’s e-Invoice FAQ Directly Using ChatGPT

LHDNM just released an 86-page FAQ on e-Invoice.

Yes, 86 pages.
Yes, it’s full of law, tax, and system terms.

And yes, your account executive, auditor or tax agent probably also haven’t finished reading it.

But the deadline is coming. You need answers — fast.

The Shortcut (No Need to Read Everything)

There’s one smart trick most people don’t know:
You can now “talk” to the PDF file — and ask questions, like:

  • “When is my e-Invoice deadline if my company revenue is RM26 million?”

  • “What to do if my customer refuse to give TIN?”

  • “Do I still need e-Invoice if I run 3 kedai but total revenue RM530k only?”

Sounds impossible? Actually, it’s very easy — if you use ChatGPT.

Wait... What is ChatGPT?

Think of ChatGPT as a free website that can help you read long documents and explain them in simple words.

It’s like a very smart intern who:

  • Reads fast

  • Explains clearly

  • Doesn’t charge overtime

No need to install anything.
Just go to the website: https://chat.openai.com
Free version is good enough.

What You Need

  • A laptop or handphone with internet

  • Your PDF file (from LHDNM website)

  • A free ChatGPT account (email + password)

Step-by-Step: How to Use It

Step 1: Download the PDF from LHDNM

  • Go to www.hasil.gov.my

  • Look for e-Invoice General FAQ (Updated 15 June 2025)

  • Save the file to your laptop/phone

Step 2: Go to ChatGPT

Step 3: Ask Your Question
Type your question just like you talk to a colleague:

“When do I need to start e-Invoice if my turnover was RM600k in 2023?”
“Can I issue one invoice for many cash customers?”
“What is self-billed e-Invoice and when to use?”

ChatGPT will search inside the PDF and give you the answer in plain English.

Why SME Bosses Like It

  • No need to read 80 pages

  • No need to kacau your account executive, auditor and tax agent

  • Can ask 24/7, even Sunday night

  • Works for all other LHDNM files too

Don’t Worry

  • It’s not illegal

  • It’s not complicated

  • You won’t break your computer

If you know how to send email or open Facebook, you already know enough to use ChatGPT.
