Invoice code is the only code given to the invoice by the tax department, which is used to identify the basic information such as the type and number of the invoice. Invoice number is the unique identification of invoice, usually consisting of 8 digits or letters, which is used to record the issuing time and order of invoice. On the top left of the invoice, the invoice code and invoice number are usually indicated.
In addition to the invoice code and number, the invoice may also contain other relevant information, such as the name of the billing company, the name of the payee, the name of the commodity, the quantity, the unit price and the amount. This information is very important for verifying the authenticity and accuracy of invoices and protecting the rights and interests of both parties to the transaction.
When using invoices, it is necessary to check whether the invoice code and number are consistent with the actual transaction, and also to check whether the commodity name, quantity, unit price, amount and other information are accurate. If you find that the invoice information is wrong or in doubt, you should contact the billing unit or relevant departments in time to verify and deal with it.
