Electronic Invoicing Ecuador
Ecuador has gradually introduced the clearance model system, and since 2014, the government has made e-invoices for both private and public organisations mandatory.
Recently, Ecuador has introduced the e-reporting obligation to different taxpayers. Currently, e-invoicing is mandatory for the following three main groups of taxpayers:
- Those involved in commercialization activity in heavy machinery,
- Individuals or entities carrying out wholesale and retail operation of liquefied gas, and
- Individuals and companies not included in the previous groups with transactions with the State for amounts equal or greater than USD 1,000.
Taxable persons are required to register and get authorisation from the Servicio de Rentas Internas (SRI), the Tax Authority, in order to issue e-invoices. All invoices must be sent to the SRI for validation and e-signature (QR code generation). Once this validation is done, the invoices are forwarded to the respective buyers. The invoice format is XML.
The responsible tax authority is the Servicio De Rentas Internas (SRI).
