Malaysia e-Invoice position

Bukku provides Malaysia e-Invoice features. Verify whether your workflow needs direct submission, consolidation or accountant access.

Rules changed on 1 September 2026: businesses below RM3 million annual income or sales are generally exempt from mandatory implementation. Always confirm your position with current IRBM guidance or a qualified adviser.

Bukku plans and pricing

Launch is free; Seed starts at RM35/month before SST. Transaction guidance, storage and add-ons vary by plan.

  • Launch (free tier)

    Advertised as free with usage guidance on transactions, storage and email. Treat it as a trial runway, not unlimited production volume.

    Pick this when: You are validating Bukku with an accountant or testing Malaysia invoicing before you commit monthly spend.

  • Seed (from RM35/month before SST)

    Paid entry plan with higher limits. Confirm current caps on documents, storage and integrations on Bukku’s pricing page before you migrate a year of books.

    Pick this when: You outgrow Launch limits or need a stable monthly plan for a small team with regular sales and purchase volume.

  • Higher tiers (quoted on site)

    Bukku publishes additional plans for heavier volume. Map your transaction count, inventory needs and accountant workflow before upgrading.

    Pick this when: You need more headroom than Seed or your accountant recommends a specific paid tier for e-Invoice and reporting.

Questions buyers actually ask

Is Bukku free for a real SME?
Launch is free with tight usage guidance. Seed starts at RM35/month before SST. Check storage, email quota and recommended transactions against your volume.
Launch or Seed — which Bukku plan should I pick?
Stay on Launch only while volume fits the published guidance. Move to Seed when you need predictable paid limits for day-to-day bookkeeping. Confirm the live pricing page before you import historical data.
Does Bukku replace payroll software?
No. Shortlist Bukku for bookkeeping and invoicing, then pair it with a Malaysian payroll product if you have employees.
