The Carbonless Invoice Book is a essential business document designed for use in the United Arab Emirates, incorporating all requirements set forth by the UAE Federal Tax Authority and federal commercial laws. It serves as a primary transaction record, creating simultaneous original and duplicate copies for proper record-keeping and tax compliance. The document is particularly crucial following the implementation of VAT in the UAE, requiring specific elements such as tax registration numbers, detailed item descriptions, and proper tax calculations. This format is widely used across various industries for both B2B and B2C transactions, providing immediate copies for all parties while ensuring compliance with document retention requirements under UAE law. The carbonless format eliminates the need for carbon paper while maintaining the legal validity of all copies produced.
