28 November 2011 There are two types of invoices that can be issued:

1.Tax invoice

2.Retail invoice


Under VAT, tax invoice is a very important document. A registered dealer selling goods to another registered dealer shall issue tax invoice.

A tax invoice should contain the complete details about selling as well as purchasing dealer. The invoice should also contain details about sale viz. description of goods, quantity, rate per unit and total value of goods.

A tax invoice should contain the complete details about selling as well as purchasing dealer. The invoice should also contain details about sale viz. description of goods, quantity, rate per unit and total value of goods.


Retail invoice should contain the same details in tax invoice except TIN of purchaser. A retain invoice may also be in the format for tax invoice. But on the top of the invoice, instead of tax invoice, retail invoice should be printed.

A tax invoice shall be prepared in triplicate. The ‘original’ and ‘duplicate’ copies shall be issued to the purchaser and the selling dealer shall retain ‘triplicate’ copy. Retail invoice may be prepared in duplicate.

A retail invoice can be signed by authorized person.
