Electronic invoices for business in Kyrgyzstan
The Resolution of the Cabinet of Ministers of the Kyrgyz Republic dated 6 April 2023 introduced new requirements regarding the use of electronic invoices. From May 2023, all entrepreneurs are required to use electronic invoices - upon notification by the State Tax Service of the Kyrgyz Republic.
Now all taxpayers in this country must register in the information system of the Kyrgyz Tax Service and use electronic invoices.
These requirements do not apply to entrepreneurs who use a cash register machine (CCM) or pay tax on the basis of a patent, as well as those who apply a zero tax rate and have annual revenue not exceeding 8 million soms.
Recall that the mandatory use of electronic invoices came into force in Kyrgyzstan from 1 July 2020 for VAT payers, importers and exporters of goods, and from 1 April 2022 for taxpayers whose annual turnover exceeds 8 million soms.
The use of electronic invoices reduces contacts between entrepreneurs and the tax service, as well as between taxpayers themselves. This tool facilitates the withdrawal of business from the shadow economy and simplifies the taxation process.
