Dear ZATCA Team,
We have received a query from one of our customers, and we seek your clarification on the following scenario.
An Advance Invoice was posted and successfully cleared by ZATCA. Subsequently, when raising the Tax Invoice against this Advance Invoice, we include the advance amount details at the line level within the invoice, as explained below:
-
Line 1: Full amount for the project.
-
Line 2: Advance amount details and corresponding values.
In this context, could you please confirm whether it is acceptable to apply a discount on both lines — that is, one discount on Line 1 (the project amount) and another discount on Line 2 (the advance amount)?
Please note that the initial Prepayment (Advance) Invoice did not include any discount. The discount is being introduced only at the stage of the Tax Invoice, specifically on the advance line.
Your confirmation on whether this type of invoice structure and discount application is acceptable under ZATCA guidelines would be highly appreciated.
@Ankit.K.Tiwari — we seek your guidance on this
Thanks in Advance.
