Mandatory Elements for a Turkish Invoice

To ensure legal compliance, a Turkish invoice must include several mandatory elements, starting with the Vergi Kimlik Numarası (VKN), which is the 10-digit tax identification number for businesses or the 11-digit national ID for Turkish citizens acting as individuals. Key invoice details include the full name, address, and tax office of both the seller and the buyer. Each invoice requires a unique serial number and the date of issuance, which must be within 7 days of the goods' delivery or service performance. Furthermore, a detailed description of the goods or services, their quantity, unit price, the total amount, the applicable Value Added Tax (VAT) rate, and the total VAT amount are essential. For certain transactions, such as service exports, specific tax exemption clauses like "3065 Sayılı KDVK Madde 11/1-a gereği KDV'den istisnadır" must be explicitly stated to justify a 0% VAT rate.

Formatting Invoices for Turkish Clients

When formatting invoices for Turkish clients, particularly for B2B transactions, adherence to e-invoicing regulations is crucial. Businesses exceeding an annual turnover of TRY 3 million (for 2022 income) or TRY 500,000 in specific sectors like e-commerce, real estate, and construction, are mandated to use e-Fatura or e-Arşiv Fatura systems. All e-invoices must conform to the UBL-TR 1.2 XML format (UBL 2.1) and include a QR code for verification, a requirement since September 2023. While invoices are generally issued in Turkish Lira (TRY), foreign currency invoices are permissible under certain conditions, though payments to contractors must be in TRY. Turkey applies a standard VAT rate of 20%, with reduced rates of 10% and 1% for specific goods and services.
