VAT invoices and TIN

3 minute read

Prices exclude VAT; 7.5% is added to each hourly charge. Add your company name and Tax Identification Number (TIN) in Billing and you get a VAT invoice for each month, ready for your accountant and FIRS filings.

1. Add your billing details

Open Billing and choose Edit on the Billing details card. Enter the registered company name, the TIN, a billing email and the company address exactly as on your CAC and FIRS records.

FieldExample
Company nameKora Foods Ltd
TIN12345678-0001
Billing email[email protected]
Address14 Admiralty Way, Lekki Phase 1, Lagos
Only owners, admins and the Billing role can change billing details. Every change is recorded in the Audit log.

2. How VAT is worked out

VAT is charged on usage, not on top-ups. Each daily usage line in Wallet history already includes it; the monthly invoice shows it separately.

LineAmount
Usage, October 2026 (before VAT)₦41,777
VAT 7.5%₦3,133
Total charged₦44,910

3. Download your invoice

On the 1st of each month the invoice for the previous month appears under Invoices, and a copy is emailed to the billing email. Each one lists every resource with its hours, the VAT and your TIN.

4. Fix or reissue an invoice

If you added your TIN after an invoice was issued, choose Reissue on that invoice to get a corrected copy with the new details. Amounts never change on a reissue.

  • Download a CSV of Wallet history for reconciliation; it is sent to the billing email.
  • Paystack receipts for top-ups come from Paystack; the VAT invoice is the document for your books.
  • Change who gets invoice emails under Settings, Notifications (Monthly VAT invoice ready).
