The Inland Revenue Department (IRD) has said the implementation of the new tax invoice format and specifications for Value Added Tax (VAT) registered persons has been deferred to 1 April 2026.
The revised timeline follows requests from a large number of VAT registered persons, the IRD said in an official notice issued by the Commissioner General of Inland Revenue.
Under the original order published in Extraordinary Gazette Notification No. 2463/05 dated 17 November 2025, the new tax invoice format was due to come into effect from 1 January 2026.
The IRD said an amendment to the relevant Gazette Notification will be issued in due course to give effect to the revised implementation date.
