Six key requirements for tax compliant invoicing
There are a number of critical parts to your invoicing in order to make sure your invoices are tax compliant.
What are the must haves?
- Ensure the words ‘Tax Invoice’ are prominent
- Clearly display your full business name and address
- Your ABN (Australian Business Number) must be on the document
- The date of invoice is displayed
- The description of the product purchased by your customer, quantity and of course the price
- Display the total and the GST amount. You have 2 options of how to display this.
- Display the GST separately and then the total value of what is sold (including GST) – Called a GST Exclusive Invoice
- Total price of sale (including GST) with the wording “Total price including GST” – Called a GST inclusive invoice
NOTE: If you have sales of more than $1000 on your tax invoice you are also required to add your customer’s identity and their address or ABN.
