What to show on the PDF
Sri Lankan VAT invoices should identify the supplier and show VAT in LKR. Official e-invoice rules may apply — draft PDFs here. Confirm the rate and registration details that apply to your supply before you send. This PDF is a client draft — not a government e-invoice portal. Keep net, tax, and gross easy to read so the client can post the bill without guessing.
Cover the usual fields in what to include on an invoice: parties, unique number, dates, lines, tax when charged, total, and payment instructions.
Rates and registration
Generator defaults are starters only — confirm the rate and whether the supply is exempt or zero-rated before you send. If you are not registered to charge tax, clear Taxes so the PDF does not invent a percentage.
