How to Upload TXT File and Make Payment on e-PCB Plus System

The e-PCB Plus system is now mandatory for all employers submitting Monthly Tax Deductions (MTD) to LHDN. To ensure accurate and timely submissions, all employers must transition to e-PCB Plus as previous submission methods (e-Data PCB, e-PCB, and e-CP39) will be fully deactivated.

Important Note for "Payroll Bank Application" Users

If you're currently using a payroll bank application to make payments to LHDN, you do not need to register for e-PCB Plus.

What Does This Mean for BrioHR Users?

There are no updates required on BrioHR’s system at this time. The file format remains the same unless LHDN announces an update. If any format changes occur, BrioHR will promptly update the system and notify you accordingly.

If you have any questions about the transition to e-PCB Plus, we recommend contacting LHDN directly for assistance.

 

Step-by-Step Guide: Uploading the TXT File and Making a Payment on e-PCB Plus

PART A: Uploading the TXT File

  1. Download the TXT file from the BrioHR system. (Learn how to HERE.)
  2. Go to your e-PCB Plus dashboard via the MyTax portal.
    [If you are not able to view the e-PCB Plus dashboard, please refer to the LHDN User Manual on how to apply for the e-PCB Plus access.]

  3. Once you're in e-PCB Plus dashboard, click SERVICES and select e-DATA PCB to upload the file.
  4. Choose the .txt file format and upload the file.


  5. Once uploaded, click CHECK DATA to verify the file.
  6. The status will show as BEING PROCESSED—keep clicking Refresh until it shows PASS.

CAUTION!

  • If the file is marked "FAIL", it means there are incomplete or incorrect details (e.g., missing tax number or mismatched IC and Tax Number).
  • The portal will display the errors. To proceed, you must correct the details, and re-upload the file until the status changes to "PASS".
  • As all employees who pay PCB must now have a PCB number, please navigate to Profile → Payroll in the BrioHR system, and add the Tax Number for the employees. Then, download the new TXT file and re-upload it on the e-PCB Plus portal.
