title: United Arab Emirates
---
The UAE tax system is administered by the Federal Tax Authority (FTA).
VAT was introduced on January 1, 2018, with standard, zero, and
exempt rate categories.

Businesses must register for VAT if taxable supplies and imports
exceed AED 375,000 in a 12-month period, with voluntary registration
available above AED 187,500. Registered businesses receive a Tax
Registration Number (TRN) which must be included on all tax invoices.

Simplified VAT invoices may be used when the recipient is not VAT
registered, or when the transaction value does not exceed AED 10,000
for VAT-registered recipients. Credit notes are supported for
correcting invoices.

title: Argentina
---
Argentina's tax system is administered by ARCA (Agencia de Recaudación y Control Aduanero), which oversees the collection of IVA (Impuesto al Valor Agregado), the country's value-added tax.

Taxpayers are identified using three main types of tax identification numbers: CUIT (Clave Única de Identificación Tributaria) - 11 digits (XX-XXXXXXXX-X) used by companies and legal entities with prefixes 30, 33 (conflict resolution), and 34 (foreign entities); CUIL (Clave Única de Identificación Laboral) - 11 digits (XX-XXXXXXXX-X) used by individuals and employees with prefixes 20 (males), 27 (females), and 23 (conflict resolution); and CDI (Clave de Identificación) for foreign residents without CUIT/CUIL (not validated).

IVA rates include 27% increased rate for gas, water and telecom services, 21% general rate for most goods and services, and 10.5% reduced rate for essential goods such as construction, medicine, transportation, and food products.

Argentina applies several retention taxes: IVA Retenido (Retained VAT) with variable rates based on taxpayer category and registration status (reference: AFIP RG 2854/2010 and modifications); Ganancias (Income Tax Withholding) applied to payments for services with rates ranging from 0.5% to 35% depending on service type (reference: AFIP RG 830/2000, RG 4003/2017); and Ingresos Brutos (Gross Income Tax), a provincial tax with rates set by each jurisdiction, typically 1% to 5% depending on province and activity.

Electronic invoicing through ARCA's system is required for most transactions. Electronic invoices must include CAE/CAI (Código de Autorización Electrónico - Electronic Authorization Code) and Point of Sale (Punto de Venta) for invoice numbering.

Common invoice types include Tipo A (issued by Responsable Inscripto to another Responsable Inscripto), Tipo B (issued by Responsable Inscripto to Monotributista or final consumer), Tipo C (issued by Monotributista or exempt entities), Tipo E (export invoices), and Credit Notes (Notas de Crédito - corrective documents).

Argentina has different tax regime classifications: Responsable Inscripto (registered taxpayer with full IVA obligations), Monotributo (simplified tax regime for small businesses), Exento (exempt from IVA), No Responsable (not responsible for IVA collection), and Consumidor Final (final consumer - no tax ID required).

Tax identification in Brazil is provided either through a CNPJ for businesses or a CPF for individuals. Both types are valid for the issuance of NFS-e (electronic service invoices).
Brazil uses Notas Fiscais Eletrônicas (electronic fiscal notes) such as NFSe,
NFe, and NFCe for reporting tax information to municipal, state, and federal
authorities. The tax system is administered by the Receita Federal (Federal
Revenue Service).

Tax identification is provided through a CNPJ (Cadastro Nacional da Pessoa
Jurídica) for businesses, consisting of 14 digits, or a CPF (Cadastro de Pessoas
Físicas) for individuals, consisting of 11 digits. Both types are valid for the
issuance of NFS-e (electronic service invoices).

Brazilian addresses have three subdivisions relevant for tax purposes: bairro
(neighbourhood), município (municipality), and estado (state). Municipality codes
follow the IBGE coding system.

Service notes (NFSe) let service providers document and report taxes such as
ISS (Imposto Sobre Serviços) related to the services they provide. Municipal
governments regulate them. Special tax regimes include Simples Nacional for
simplified taxation of micro and small enterprises, and MEI (Micro-Empreendedor
Individual) for individual micro-entrepreneurs.

title: Canada

Canada's tax system is administered by the Canada Revenue Agency
(CRA). The country uses a multi-layered sales tax system consisting
of the federal Goods and Services Tax (GST) and various provincial
taxes.

The Harmonized Sales Tax (HST) combines GST and provincial sales
tax in participating provinces. Non-participating provinces levy a
separate Provincial Sales Tax (PST) at varying rates. Zero-rated
supplies include basic groceries, agricultural products, and
exports. Exempt supplies include certain financial services,
educational services, and healthcare services.

Businesses with annual taxable revenues exceeding CAD 30,000 must
register for GST/HST. Tax identification is through the Business
Number (BN) assigned by the CRA. Canada supports both credit notes
and debit notes for invoice corrections.

title: Switzerland

Switzerland's tax system is administered by the Federal Tax Administration
(Eidgenössische Steuerverwaltung, ESTV). Although not an EU member, Switzerland
operates its own VAT system (Mehrwertsteuer, MWST).

VAT applies at standard, reduced, and special rates. The reduced rate covers
everyday goods such as food, non-alcoholic beverages, books, newspapers, and
medicines, while a special rate applies to accommodation services.

Businesses with annual taxable revenues exceeding CHF 100,000 must register
for VAT. Tax identification uses the UID (Unternehmens-Identifikationsnummer)
in the format CHE-XXX.XXX.XXX followed by "MWST" for VAT purposes.

Switzerland supports credit notes for invoice corrections. E-invoicing is not
mandatory but is increasingly used, particularly in business-to-government (B2G)
transactions.

Colombia's tax system is administered by the DIAN (Dirección de Impuestos y
Aduanas Nacionales). Electronic invoicing is mandatory for most businesses
through the DIAN's e-invoicing platform.

Businesses are identified by their NIT (Número de Identificación Tributaria),
which includes a check digit. For B2C transactions (using the simplified tag),
customers may be identified using various document types including Registro
civil, Tarjeta de identidad, Cédula de ciudadanía, Tarjeta de extranjería,
Cédula de extranjería, Pasaporte, PEP, or NUIP. If no customer identity is
provided for simplified invoices, the reserved final consumer code is used
automatically.

IVA (Impuesto sobre el Valor Agregado) applies at general, reduced, and zero
rates. Some goods and services are excluded or exempt from IVA.

Invoice series must be pre-registered with the DIAN. Municipality codes are
required for addresses. Both credit notes and debit notes are supported for
invoice corrections, each requiring a specific correction cause code from the
DIAN (e.g. partial refund, revoked, discount, adjustment for credit notes;
interest, pending charges, change in value for debit notes).

Denmark's tax system is administered by the Danish Tax Agency (Skattestyrelsen).
As an EU member state, Denmark follows the EU VAT Directive.

VAT (Moms, short for Merværdiafgift) applies at a single standard rate on

healthcare, education, financial services).

Businesses are identified by their CVR number (Det Centrale Virksomhedsregister),
an 8-digit number. The Danish VAT number uses the format DK followed by the
8-digit CVR number. E-invoicing via the NemHandel/PEPPOL network is mandatory
for all B2G transactions.

Spain's tax system is administered by the Agencia Tributaria (AEAT). As an
EU member state, Spain follows the EU VAT Directive with locally adapted rates.

IVA (Impuesto sobre el Valor Añadido) applies at general, reduced, and
super-reduced rates. The Canary Islands use IGIC (Impuesto General Indirecto
Canario) instead of IVA, while Ceuta and Melilla use IPSI (Impuesto sobre la
Producción, los Servicios y la Importación).

Businesses are identified by their NIF (Número de Identificación Fiscal) or
CIF for companies. IRPF (Impuesto sobre la Renta de las Personas Físicas)
retention taxes apply to freelancer invoices at varying rates.

According to Real Decreto 1619/2012, only rectified (rectificativa) invoices
are recognized in Spanish law. GOBL maps corrective invoices to "rectificación
modelo íntegro" (complete replacement) and credit notes to "rectificación por
diferencias" (correction by differences, with quantities inverted during
conversion). The FacturaE format is used for B2G e-invoicing, with TicketBAI
required in the Basque Country, VeriFactu being rolled out nationally, and the
SII (Suministro Inmediato de Información) system providing near-real-time
reporting of invoicing data to the AEAT.

2-digit checksum followed by the 9-digit SIREN; the SIREN itself, a 9-digit
company identifier from the national register (Répertoire SIRENE); and the
SIRET, which extends the SIREN with a 5-digit establishment number to form
a 14-digit code.

France supports both corrective invoices and credit notes for invoice
corrections. E-invoicing via the Chorus Pro platform is mandatory for B2G
transactions, with B2B e-invoicing being progressively mandated through the
CTC (Continuous Transaction Controls) framework.
