e-Invoice: what Dokira does, and what it does not

Dokira is a buyer-side tool. It reads the invoices you receive from suppliers. It does not issue or submit e-Invoices to LHDN.

What Dokira does

  • Detects the MyInvois QR code and UUID on supplier invoices.
  • Keeps the e-Invoice UUID with the approved document.
  • Checks totals, TIN and duplicates on every document, e-Invoice or ordinary invoice.
  • Checks the e-Invoice status with the MyInvois portal, when your organisation turns it on with the client's MyInvois credentials.

What Dokira does not do

  • It does not issue, sign or submit e-Invoices.
  • It is not an intermediary service registered with LHDN.
  • It does not advise on your business's e-Invoice obligations.

Why this matters for purchase documents

Our conclusion: with the RM3 million threshold and the relaxation period until 31/12/2027, firms will keep receiving a mix of e-Invoices and ordinary invoices from small suppliers. Both need checking and recording once. Dokira is built for that.
