Issuing a tax invoice for a customer outside Saudi Arabia without a tax number

If the customer is outside Saudi Arabia and you were unable to enter a tax number in their data, and you want the invoice to be a regular tax invoice and not a simplified tax invoice, you can follow the following solution:

1. Go to the Customers list
2. Click on Edit next to the required customer
3. Enable the first option: “Is the business subject to tax?”
   

   Note: A tax number or additional customer identifiers must be entered for businesses subject to tax.

4. Scroll down to the “Additional Customer Identifiers” section
   • Add any additional identifier available for the customer (such as a commercial registration number or a registration identifier from their country).
5. Save changes

After issuing the invoice: A regular tax invoice will be issued (after following the steps above).

Notes:

• This solution relies on adding an alternative identifier for the customer if they do not have a Saudi tax number.
• Ensure the accuracy of the added identifier to ensure tax compliance.
