Jamaica Tax Invoice Template

According to Tax Administration Jamaica (TAJ), all Registered Taxpayers must issue a tax invoice to all other Registered Taxpayers to whom taxable goods or services are supplied. Here we provide you with a ready-to-use Excel template that could simplify the creation of invoices.

The template adheres to the requirements detailed at Tax Administration Jamaica (TAJ). It implements the automatic calculation of tax (GCT, i.e., General Consumption Tax). The GCT is a value-added tax that is applied to the value added to goods and services at each stage in the production and distribution chain. It is a tax on consumption and is included in the final price the consumer pays for goods and services. As a Registered Taxpayer, you must issue a tax invoice for sales made to another Registered Taxpayer. In the case of sales to other people, you should issue an invoice or a receipt for each transaction.

As TAJ requires, all Registered Taxpayers must issue a Tax Invoice to all other Registered Taxpayers to whom taxable goods or services are supplied. The document should be pre-numbered and show the following:

• "Tax Invoice" (shown prominently)
• Date of the taxable supply
• The serialized number
• Name, address, and GCT registration number of the Registered Taxpayer
• Name and address of the Registered Taxpayer to whom the taxable supply is made
• Quantity and description of the taxable supply
• Amount of the consideration payable on the taxable amount
• Rate of tax and the amount of tax payable
• Total amount of the consideration and the GCT.

This template was created with the above requirements in mind. In order to create this layout from the default template shipped with our app, we moved out the Product# (Item#) column from the detail section and added a new column "Date Supplied", which is a custom field "DateSupplied".
