This discussion focuses on the correct invoice format for exporting services from India to the UK, where LUT (Letter of Undertaking) has been filed, meaning no IGST is charged. Key questions addressed include the currency of the invoice (GBP) and whether a Service Accounting Code (SAC) is required. The consensus is that a six-digit SAC code is necessary for export of services invoices.
