Frequently asked questions
Do I need to show VAT separately on a Ireland invoice?
Yes. The VAT amount must be shown separately from the net amount, along with the rate applied and your registration number if you are registered.
What currency should a Ireland invoice use?
Invoices are normally issued in EUR (€). Cross-border invoices may use another currency, but state it explicitly and show the exchange basis if tax is involved.
Is this Ireland invoice format legally compliant?
The generator includes the fields most tax authorities require — sequential numbering, registration numbers, rate and amount shown separately. It is a template, not tax advice; confirm specifics with your accountant.
