What is a tax invoice?

Invoices are the foundation of business activity documentation and accounting. They are the documents that keep track of the movement of finances and inventory in a firm and record the vital information of transactions. A tax invoice is a legal document issued by a certified seller to the buyer of their goods that shows the amount of tax that must be paid. The product name and description, invoice date, invoice number, tax amount, and services delivered are all included on a tax invoice.

Contents and format of a tax invoice

  • Name and contact information for the supplier
  • Name and contact information for the customer
  • Number of the tax invoice
  • The supplier’s and customer’s PAN and GSTIN
  • A list of the items with descriptions
  • The number of items

Is a tax invoice a bill?

A bill is a short document that contains essential information about a transaction. It contains information on the seller and may or may not include all of the details of the discount or taxes that have been applied. A tax invoice is a thorough document that serves as a legal payment method for a business. Payment in full is expected when the vendor creates the tax invoice and sends it to the customer.

An invoice is provided to the buyer or firm before payment and is used to request payment, whereas a receipt is issued after payment has been completed.
