Xero
Cloud accounting platform with IMDA-certified InvoiceNow e-invoicing in Singapore and LHDN MyInvois e-invoicing in Malaysia
Xero is a Wellington, New Zealand-based cloud accounting platform with verified, country-specific e-invoicing compliance in Singapore (IMDA InvoiceNow certification, own Peppol Access Point) and Malaysia (Peppol accreditation plus an Invoici integration for LHDN's MyInvois portal). It is best for SG and MY businesses that need e-invoicing compliance built into their accounting platform rather than bolted on separately. Singapore pricing starts at SGD 39/month for the Starter plan, rising to SGD 70/month (Standard) and SGD 95/month (Premium), all GST-inclusive.
Judged on regional fit, not vendor glossies.
No Thailand e-Tax Invoice/Receipt (RD) integration documented; Xero's verified SEA compliance work is Singapore- and Malaysia-specific.
IMDA InvoiceNow certification in Singapore and LHDN MyInvois integration in Malaysia are both verified; no equivalent documented for Thailand, Vietnam, Indonesia, or the Philippines.
Accounting software, not a LINE Official Account or messaging integration.
No native Shopee/Lazada marketplace connector documented; e-invoicing integrates with government networks rather than marketplaces.
The SGD 39/month Starter plan is accessible for small Singapore businesses, though pricing rose in late 2025 and usage limits tighten at the entry tier.

- ×Singapore pricing rose in late 2025; the Starter plan carries tighter usage limits than Standard or Premium
- ×Malaysia e-invoicing requires the separate Invoici connector rather than a fully native feature
About Xero
Xero is a cloud accounting platform headquartered in Wellington, New Zealand, covering invoicing, bank reconciliation, payroll, and reporting for small businesses and accountants. In Singapore, Xero holds IMDA-certified InvoiceNow-ready status, meeting Peppol BIS Billing 3.0 CIUS requirements and generating UBL 2.1 XML e-invoices routed through Xero's own IMDA-accredited Peppol Access Point. In Malaysia, Xero is Peppol-accredited and integrates with the Invoici gateway to submit e-invoices directly to the Inland Revenue Board's (LHDN) MyInvois portal, assigning each connected business a unique Peppol ID and applying the correct tax codes and MyInvois classifications, including for self-billed e-invoices, ahead of Malaysia's phased e-invoicing mandate that runs through July 2026 by revenue tier.
Key Features
Best For
Southeast Asia Fit
Xero's Southeast Asia relevance is grounded in two verified, country-specific e-invoicing integrations rather than general availability alone. In Singapore it is directly IMDA-certified as InvoiceNow-ready and operates its own accredited Peppol Access Point, so e-invoices can be sent and received without a third-party add-on. In Malaysia, Xero's Peppol accreditation plus its Invoici integration automate submission to LHDN's MyInvois portal, generating a Peppol ID and applying MyInvois-compliant tax classifications ahead of the country's phased e-invoicing mandate. No equivalent Thailand, Vietnam, Indonesia, or Philippines-specific compliance integration was found for this entry.
