What is an API?

An API, or Application Programming Interface, is a tool that lets different software applications communicate with each other. For example, when you use a weather app on your phone, it uses an API to get weather data from a weather service. APIs work by sending requests and receiving responses, allowing one application to use the functions or data of another.

Malaysia is implementing e-invoicing in phases, beginning with businesses with an annual turnover exceeding RM 100 million.To facilitate this, there are two primary models for generating e-invoices: using the MyInvois portal and through API integration. While the MyInvois portal is suitable for small businesses with a limited volume of transactions, API integration would be widely adopted by large enterprises due to its ability to handle a higher volume of transactions efficiently.

API integration connects the enterprise source systems directly with MyInvois for document submission, validation, retrieval, status tracking, and much more. This blog will discuss API integration, API’s role in e-invoicing, Software Development Kit (SDK), and the various types of e-invoicing APIs available.

API integration plays a crucial role in streamlining the e-invoicing process. By enabling direct communication between taxpayers' systems and the government's e-invoicing platform, API eliminates the need for manual data entry and facilitates real-time communication and seamless data exchange.

The Software Development Kit (SDK) released by IRBM includes a total of 15 APIs, categorized into platform and e-invoicing APIs. These APIs are designed to facilitate various functionalities crucial for e-invoicing processes, including submission, validation, retrieval of e-invoices, notification, and more.
