In case of clearance rejection from ZATCA, the taxpayer can fix the error and re-submit the Standard Tax Invoice for clearance. The new invoice should include its own new unique hash, UUID, invoice counter value and timestamp. The date on invoice should be updated as non-cleared invoice is not considered as a valid Tax Invoice from ZATCA’s perspective. Previous Invoice Hash will be based on immediately preceding document (not necessarily linked to the rejected invoice).
