Qualified invoice is the legal term for documents, such as invoices, delivery statements, and other similar documents containing certain specified items.
Under the Qualified Invoice System that will start in Japan in October 2023, buyers, who are taxable business operators (customers), will be required to keep qualified invoices that meet certain requirements in order to receive deductions for purchases when paying consumption tax.
In addition, as a business issuer of qualified invoices, sellers (e.g. our company) are obligated to issue a qualified invoice when requested to do so by the buyer.
At bitFlyer qualified invoices are compiled of a fee statement and the “TradeHistory.csv” file. Please click here for instructions on how to download qualified invoices.
For an overview of the Qualified Invoice System, please refer to the website of the National Tax Agency (in Japanese).
