Peppol is not just an invoicing system, it’s a full B2B trade automation network.
When you adopt e-Invoicing using Peppol, this ID allows other businesses and systems to find you and send invoices to you correctly.
In Malaysia, the Peppol ID is created using your company’s SSM registration number, so that invoices are always linked to the correct business. If the information does not match official records, the business may not be able to use e-Invoicing properly.
For reference, the latest Malaysia Peppol ID Specification is available at: Malaysia Peppol ID
Registration may fail if the Peppol ID information does not match SSM records, such as an incorrect company number, wrong state code, outdated details, or if the company is inactive or dormant.
To avoid issues, businesses should ensure their Peppol ID is created using accurate and up-to-date SSM information before registration.
The LHDNM MyInvois system provides an API endpoint called “Get Document Details”, which allows authorised taxpayers or their appointed Peppol Service Providers to retrieve invoice information and its validation status directly from MyInvois.
More information is available at: MyInvois SDK - Get Document Details
For participants connected through the Malaysia Peppol Network, validation can also be verified using the PINT MY (Malaysia Peppol Invoice Transaction) specifications. By combining the invoice UUID embedded in the Peppol payload with the MyInvois API, buyer systems can confirm whether the e-Invoice received has been validated and approved by LHDN.
Refer to the PINT MY Syntax Specification for detailed guidance on UUID structure and integration within the Malaysia Peppol Network: Malaysia electronic document specifications
PRSP accreditation is generally more accessible for software vendors, system integrators and ERP providers, as it focuses on solution readiness, Peppol document compliance, and integration capability. Becoming a PRSP enables companies to deliver Peppol-enabled solutions directly to end users, expand their market reach and participate more actively in Malaysia’s growing e-Invoicing ecosystem. MDEC, as Malaysia’s Peppol Authority, encourages more vendors to pursue PRSP accreditation to accelerate nationwide adoption and to provide businesses with a wider choice of Peppol-ready solutions.
On the other hand, setting up and operating a Peppol Access Point (SP) involves significant technical, operational and security commitments, including maintaining AS4 messaging compliance, high-availability infrastructure, certificate lifecycle management and continuous monitoring. These requirements may pose challenges for many vendors who do not specialise in managed network services.
Organisations that wish to pursue dual accreditation (SP + PRSP) may do so, but must independently meet the full technical, procedural and compliance requirements for each category. Accreditation in one category does not automatically qualify a company for the other.
Please refer to the accreditation criteria for SP and PRSP at: SP Accreditation Guidelines and PRSP Accreditation Guidelines.
