Tax invoice

In Saudi Arabia, tax invoices must contain this information in Arabic, and in any other language into which the tax invoice is translated:

  • The date of issue
  • A sequential number that uniquely identifies the invoice
  • The TIN of the supplier
  • If the customer is required to self account for tax on the supply, the customer's TIN and a statement that the customer must account for the tax
  • The legal name and the address of the supplier and of the customer
  • The quantity and nature of the goods that are supplied or the extent and nature of the services that are rendered
  • The date of supply, if it differs from the date of issuance of the invoice
  • The taxable amount per rate or exemption, the unit price excluding VAT, and, if they are not included in the unit prices, any discounts or rebates
  • The applied tax rate
  • The payable tax amount, in riyals
  • If tax is not charged at the basic rate, a narration explaining the tax treatment that is applied to the supply
  • If the margin scheme for used goods is applied, the reference to the fact that VAT is charged on the margin on those goods

If tax is invoiced in a foreign currency, then the total invoice amount and the VAT amount must be presented also in riyals, and converted with the official rate that is effective at the invoice date.
