HMRC has updated VAT Notice 700/63 – Electronic Invoicing in respect of “information required on a tax invoice” (para 3.2).
The Notice sets out what a business needs to do if it is sending, receiving and storing VAT invoices in an electronic format.
Electronic invoicing offers many advantages over traditional paper invoices. The rapid electronic transmission of documents in a secure environment may provide for:
- structured data for auditing
- improved traceability of orders
- decreased reliance on paper reducing storage and handling costs
- rapid access and retrieval
- improved cash flow
- security and easier dispute handling
