Electronic invoices are formal invoices. Electronic invoices, like ordinary invoices, are distributed to merchants in the form of unified issuance by the tax bureau. The invoice number is distributed to merchants with national unified coding and unified anti-counterfeiting technology. The signature mechanism of the electronic tax bureau is attached to the electronic invoice. Electronic invoices can be recorded as reimbursement vouchers. Customers who issue electronic invoices return goods according to the original return process, and the other party can directly write electronic invoices in red without returning goods. Electronic invoices are suitable for e-commerce, express delivery and other industries, as well as a large number of taxpayers who use general-purpose machines to print invoices, self-printed named invoices and ordinary VAT invoices.
