Where to find your tax number?

You can find your tax number on the taxpayer registration documents that have been provided by the tax authorities in your country of tax residence. In other words, this is the unique number used by the tax authorities in your country of tax residence to identify you as a taxpayer.

When shall I update my invoice details?

Your invoice details shall be updated when you change your registered address for any reason. Please note that this shall be the address registered with the tax authorities in your country of tax residence.

When will the updated invoice details become effective?

Immediately. All invoices issued after the invoice details have been updated will state the updated invoice details.

I have updated my invoice details. Will the updated invoice details have any impact on the invoices that have already been issued?

No. The updated invoice details will only be disclosed on the invoices issued after the date on which the invoice details have been updated.

Example:

Diana Smith has updated her invoice details on Oct 1st, 2021.

All invoices issued after Oct 1st, 2021 will state the updated invoice details. Hence, an invoice issued on Dec 21st, 2021 will state the updated invoice details.

All invoices issued before Oct 1st, 2021 will remain unchanged. Hence, an invoice issued on July 30th, 2021 will state the old invoice details ( the invoice details prior to the update).
