Document type 13

Self-billed debit note — the buyer issues a debit to add to a supplier's self-billed amount.

Type 13 is the self-billed mirror of a debit note. The buyer (who issued the original self-billed invoice) issues a debit note to themselves, increasing what's owed to the supplier. Useful when the original self-billed amount was too low — late-arriving line items, FX adjustments, or contract clauses that trigger after the fact.

When to issue

Four common scenarios.

  1. 01Tax agent adding fees to a previously-self-billed client invoice (e.g. late submission penalty).
  2. 02Procurement team paying a supplier more for additional work beyond the original self-billed scope.
  3. 03Logistics buyer adding accessorial charges (detention, demurrage) to a metered-service self-bill.
  4. 04Co-operative settling a member's higher-than-estimated patronage dividend.
Required LHDN fields

What this document type carries that a generic invoice doesn't.

  • Original self-billed invoice reference — UUID of the parent type-11 document.
  • Party-flip preserved — buyer is the issuer, supplier receives the additional credit.
  • Supplier MSIC code required.
  • Reason code from LHDN's structured list, positive-sign amounts.
How Bridge handles it

Same pipeline as every other type.

Identical pipeline to type 12, with the sign convention flipped (additive rather than reducing). The bridge's CSV parser accepts the self-billed-debit subset; the dashboard's manual entry surfaces the same dropdown for reason codes; the audit log entry stamps both the buyer (issuer) and the supplier (affected party).
