Taiwan is on the Road to E‑invoicing

Foreign suppliers providing B2C services to customers based in Taiwan are required to comply with Taiwan's electronic Government Uniform Invoice (eGUI) system, which forms part of the broader e-invoicing framework. The GUI system is also applicable to domestic taxpayers for both B2C and B2B transactions. Under this system, invoices must be issued, canceled, or adjusted—whether for returns, purchase withdrawals, or discounts—only with the explicit approval of the transaction counterpart. Submission of GUI data is conducted through either government-provided software or an authorized third-party e-invoicing platform.
