Thanks, good to know! We need to balance the shortfall (forex loss, fees, etc) from the accounting side then? Feels like a lot of work just to keep track of these tiny fees individually rclxub.gif

Currently what my accountant does is if I invoiced a client for say, USD100 and I only received RM420 in my bank through Wise, he just records RM420 in the bookkeeping.
But with the upcoming e-invoicing, he'll probably need to record it at exchange rate ~RM440 and then do some extra calculation to get the actual received value? Haih, LHDN just take my money... why add so much paperwork...

Yeah, your accountant was not doing proper accounting. Ur invoice is RM440 (USD100), and the receivable after expenses and cost (of ~RM20) is ~RM420. Whether with or without e-inv, your account should still be recorded in this way leh....
