Overview
What is the Jordanian National Invoicing System?
The Jordanian invoicing system is an integrated, centralized electronic system for issuing and delivering e-invoices and for completing collection and payment transactions digitally and more accurately, by adopting electronic technologies to move away from traditional paper invoices in compliance with the tax requirements of the Kingdom of Jordan. The Jordanian e-invoicing system links the core elements that make up and govern commercial activities, transactions and practices: the Jordanian Income Tax Law, the Income and Sales Tax Department, natural or legal persons, goods, services and, finally, the most important element, the invoice, which documents transactions by describing the goods or services, their quantities and prices, and the tax due on them in accordance with the provisions and conditions of the system.
