New Zealand invoice test

Private New Zealand Ltd., ordinary private domestic business buyer, completed computer repair without parts. NZD, reviewed 15% GST. Local synthetic test.

What to do

  1. Copy the full registered name with Ltd or Limited and the address. Declare the company GST number separately. NZBN is optional for an ordinary invoice; both parties need it only for optional PINT export. No registry verification.
  2. Full registered company name, address and declared GST number reviewed. Seller and buyer are private domestic businesses; the buyer GST number is optional
  3. Ordinary computer repair at 15% GST reviewed. No goods or materials
  4. One completed repair; same-day technical test, no earlier invoice, payment or advance; bank transfer agreed. No cash discount offered; discount rate 0%
  5. This document is in English independently of the interface. Check entered business, service and payment text in English. Recipient agreed to this electronic invoice format

Before you continue

Technical pilot: 1 April–11 October 2026, service and invoice on the same day. This is a product restriction. The IRD 28-day rule concerns a qualifying buyer’s request, not a deadline automatically counted from every supply.

No EUR or FX prerequisite. GST accounting basis and returns are separate: this test does not select payments, invoice or hybrid basis for you.

An ordinary invoice needs neither buyer GST nor NZBN. Buyer name and physical address remain present. Optional PINT export requires both NZBNs frozen in the document.

Keep tax records for at least 7 tax years in English or Māori, unless another language is approved. Offshore storage needs appropriate IRD approval. Full statutory archival compliance remains open.

GST on aggregate net, rounded half up to NZD 0.01. Product calculation rule; no statutory rounding claim.

Optional PINT A-NZ 1.1.3 export needs both declared NZBNs. Ordinary invoice completion does not. Offline format checks do not send an eInvoice.

Only local synthetic supply correction information for a later full price waiver is available. No original written discount, payment, refund, earlier correction or GST return. Partial changes, replacements and delivery remain closed; original unchanged.
