How to Register as a Sole Proprietor in MyTax for E-Invoice Submission

As per LHDN's latest policy, sole proprietors must apply to be recognized as the “Business Owner” in the LHDN MyTax Portal before submitting e-invoices using their Business Registration Number (BRN). This process links your individual tax number (TIN), which starts with IG, to your business, ensuring compliance with e-invoicing regulations. Once approved, this designation allows you to manage e-invoices seamlessly under your business identity.
