What is E-invoicing?

E-invoicing is an electronic method of sending, receiving, and storing invoice data. E-invoicing can be used for both individuals and businesses. For example, if you own a small business and want to pay your employees electronically weekly, you can use e-invoicing software to transmit that information. The advantages of e-invoicing include greater security, accuracy, speed, and cost savings compared to paper invoices.

Process of E-invoicing

The registered person who is required to issue an E-Invoice shall upload its tax invoice in a JSON file on the Invoice Registration Portal (IRP) according to the e-invoice schema in INV-01 and get back digitally signed JSON with an IRN and QR Code.
