Japan’s new e-invoice retention requirements are part of the country’s latest Electronic Record Retention Law (ERRL) reform.
Along with measures such as the Qualified Invoice System (QIS) and the possibility to issue and send invoices electronically via PEPPOL, Japan is implementing different indirect tax control measures, seeking to reduce tax evasion and promote digital transformation.
In line with these objectives, the amended ERRL will require taxable persons in Japan to follow several compliance rules when archiving documents originating from electronic transactions, such as e-invoices.
