Hi Everyone,

I am an exporter of services. Everything is sold digitally, so there is no shipping bill.

Only thing I have is invoices generated by paypal when the clients paid me.

Please check the attached invoice.

Can I fill the invoice no. as on the attached image .e.g 0042 in GSTR-1 invoice field?

thanks

1. Is this invoice serially number ? i.e you only got invoice from 1,2,3,4...all ect...
2. Your service and payment is realtime basis ? like both at a time, because as per GST law invoice required to be made within 30 days of Completion of service, it's not on basis of Payment.

Hi,

these are the invoices generated by paypal on payment by the client. Whenever, a service is completed, I send invoice to clients for payment and they paid through them.

As I am in export of services, there is no shipping bill.

thanks

As per Section 31 of CGST Act you are required to generate/raise the invoice for the services being provided.

Hence it's better to provide the invoice no. which is raised by you .
For accounting records you can enclosed the invoice of PayPal with invoice raised by you.
