Can I claim for business travel between Malaysia and Singapore?

Yes, provided the travel is for business purposes. However, note the difference in vehicle claims. In Malaysia, you may claim mileage or petrol for company vehicles, whereas in Singapore, private car (S-plate) expenses remain non-deductible even for business trips.

What happens if I do not have a validated e-invoice in 2026?

For Malaysia, the LHDN may disallow the expense deduction entirely if it exceeds the consolidated threshold and lacks a validated MyInvois receipt. In Singapore, GST-registered businesses may find it impossible to claim input tax without the appropriate InvoiceNow documentation.

Are entertainment expenses fully deductible?

In Singapore, they are generally deductible if incurred for business. In Malaysia, they are typically limited to a 50% deduction, with specific exceptions for staff-related events.

How long must I keep my digital records?

Both LHDN and IRAS require records to be kept for 7 years. Digital storage is highly recommended to ensure receipts do not fade or get lost.
