The part that costs a day

The catch nobody writes down

There are two variants — with and without a tax authority code — and which one applies depends on your sector and risk profile rather than on your preference. Replacing a wrong invoice is a formal procedure with its own document and a notice to the authority, so an error cannot simply be edited and reissued the way a PDF can.

Your numbering stays yours

We issue gap-free, sequential numbers that reset on your schedule and are never reused — including for voided documents, which keep theirs. The authority takes the document as numbered.

Tax is computed from the base

Never extracted from the gross. The two formulas differ by a cent and the wrong one gets the file rejected. The leftover cent is declared as payment rounding (BT-114), where the standard puts it.

Straight talk

What we do not do in Vietnam.

We do not hold your signing certificate, we do not file your periodic returns, and we are not your accountant.

Issuing here goes through a certified provider, with your own credentials. We build the document, validate it, send it and record what comes back.
