Electronic invoices and paper invoices have the same legal effect, basic purposes and usage rules. The tax authorities electronically sign and seal the transaction information through the electronic invoice service platform. Therefore, when an enterprise issues an electronic invoice, it only needs to ensure that it has a tax-controlled signature and an electronic signature of the enterprise, and there is no need to affix a special invoice seal. In addition, the bookkeeping of electronic invoices can be decided by the enterprise itself whether to stamp or not, and the special seal on the invoice is valid even if the direction is wrong, as long as it does not affect the identification. According to the Measures for the Administration of Invoices in People's Republic of China (PRC), invoices must be truthfully filled in and stamped with the special invoice seal, but this provision does not apply to electronic invoices.
