What is a tax invoice receipt?
Tax invoices should have the following things:
- Be labelled clearly as a “Tax Invoice”
- Name, address and contact details of the seller
- Invoice Number
- Date of issue of the invoice.
- Name and Address of the buyer
- Tax Identification Number (in the case of an Australian company, this is an ABN*)
- *: If the company is outside of Australia, it should still have some form of Tax Identification Number, such as a VAT.
- If the seller does not have an ABN, you should ask them to complete a statement by supplier form. You can find out more on the ATO website.
- If you receive an order confirmation, but not a tax invoice from a seller, you should request one.
- The quantity, and description of goods/services
- The price per unit
- Total amount including taxes
- Tax charged for each item
- Payment details
