When you issue an electronic invoice, there are several ways to help you find it.
First, search by email.
When issuing electronic invoices, you need to provide a valid e-mail address. Once the invoice is issued, the system will automatically send the electronic invoice to the email address you provided. Therefore, you can log in to your email, find the email with the subject of "Electronic Invoice" or similar title, and open the email attachment to view your electronic invoice.
Second, search through the invoice query platform.
If you can't find the electronic invoice by mail, you can try to find it through the invoice inquiry platform. At present, State Taxation Administration of The People's Republic of China has launched a national VAT invoice inspection platform, through which you can query and download your electronic invoices. The specific operation steps are as follows:
Log on to the national VAT invoice inspection platform;
Enter invoice code, invoice number, invoice date and other information;
Click the "Query" button to query your electronic invoice information.
Third, search through the mobile APP.
In addition to searching for electronic invoices through e-mail and invoice inquiry platform, you can also search through mobile APP. At present, many companies have launched their own mobile apps to facilitate users to query and manage their electronic invoices anytime and anywhere. The specific operation steps may vary from APP to APP, but generally you need to download and install the APP first, then log in to your account and find your electronic invoice in the app.
To sum up:
When issuing an electronic invoice, you can find it by email, invoice inquiry platform or mobile APP. Among them, searching by e-mail is the most commonly used method, while searching through invoice inquiry platform and mobile APP requires you to master relevant operation steps and skills. If you still can't find your electronic invoice, I suggest you contact the company that issued the invoice or relevant institutions for consultation and help.
Legal basis:
Article 26 of People's Republic of China (PRC) Electronic Signature Law stipulates that an electronic signature has the same legal effect as a handwritten signature or seal. Therefore, electronic invoices have the same legal effect as paper invoices and can be used as legal and effective vouchers. At the same time, the law also stipulates the basic requirements of electronic signature and the management of certification bodies, which provides legal protection for the application of electronic invoices.
In addition, tax-related laws and regulations such as the Law of People's Republic of China (PRC) on Tax Collection and Administration and the Law of People's Republic of China (PRC) on Value-added Tax also stipulate and require the issuance, use and management of electronic invoices. Therefore, when issuing and using electronic invoices, we must abide by the provisions and requirements of relevant laws and regulations to ensure their legitimacy and effectiveness.
