Published: 2024-02-19 16:30


What is the invoicing quota?

The invoice issuance amount quota includes three categories: total invoice issuance amount quota, initial total invoice issuance amount quota, and remaining available quota.

Total invoicing amount limit,Also called the total credit limit, it refers to the upper limit of the total invoice issuance amount (excluding VAT) of a taxpayer within one natural month;That is, the maximum number of invoices that can be issued in a month, the total of all channels through which invoices can be issued

What is the invoicing quota?


Initial total invoice issuance amount limit, refers to the upper limit of the invoice issuance amount granted to the taxpayer for the current month by the electronic invoice service platform when the pilot taxpayer first uses fully digitalized e-invoices;

For newly established enterprises that only have the fully digitalized e-invoicing channel, the total invoicing quota is the quota that can be directly seen before invoicing;

What is the invoicing quota?

For enterprises that have both old and new invoicing channels, the fully digitalized e-invoice quota;

For enterprises with only the fully digitalized e-invoice channel, the initial total invoicing amount quota = total invoicing amount quota

Remaining available quota, refers to the deduction of the used quota from the total issuance amount quota of a pilot taxpayer within one calendar month.


Does the total monthly invoicing amount limit for fully digitalized e-invoices automatically reset each month?

Quota restoration is not on the 1st of each month, but after each VAT tax filing. If the filing has not been completed at the beginning of the month, only invoices up to the remaining total quota of the previous month can be issued.

For example: Company A's total invoicing amount quota for both July and August is 7.5 million yuan,

Does the total monthly invoicing amount limit for fully digitalized e-invoices automatically reset each month?

That is to say, whether the invoice quota is restored depends on whether VAT has been filed!

For small-scale taxpayers, the fully digitalized e-invoice quota is the usage quota for one quarter;

For general taxpayers, the fully digitalized e-invoice quota is restored immediately after completing tax filing!


If the fully digitalized e-invoice quota is unused, will it automatically carry over to the next period?

No,The total credit limit is the maximum limit. If it is not fully used, it is effectively reset to zero, and at the beginning of the month the original total limit is restored. If the invoice limit is not fully used for a long time, the total invoice limit is very likely to be lowered!


What should be done when the fully digitalized e-invoice quota is insufficient?

You can apply for quota adjustment through two methods: system and manual.

1. Automatic system adjustment

(1) Periodic adjustment:

The system, based on the enterprise'sRisk Level、total invoiced amountQuota usageFiling statusAutomatically every monthAdjust the total invoicing amount quota for this month.

(2) Temporary adjustment:

When tax risk is relatively low and the invoiced amount in the current month reaches a certain proportion for the first time, the total invoicing amount limit is automatically temporarily increased once.

(3) Irregular adjustments:

EnterpriseCategory changedor appearsLower risk's enterprisesIf the temporary adjustment rule is triggered for 3 consecutive months, increasing the total amount that can be issued in the current month, the system will adjust the total amount that can be issued at the beginning of the month from the following month according to relevant rules.

2. Manual application for credit limit adjustment

If an enterprise applies to adjust its total credit limit due to changes in actual business conditions, and the competent tax authority, after review in accordance with laws and regulations based on factors such as the enterprise's risk level, tax credit rating, and actual business conditions, finds no abnormalities, it shall adjust the total credit limit for the enterprise.

Common Questions
Is the fully digitalized e-invoice quota automatically restored on the 1st of each month?
No. Quota restoration occurs after each completed VAT filing, not on the 1st of each month. If no filing is made at the beginning of the month, only the previous month's remaining quota can be issued. General taxpayers restore after filing, and small-scale taxpayers use quotas quarterly.
Will unused fully digitalized e-invoice quota be carried over to the next month?
No. The total credit limit is the maximum limit for the month. The unused portion will be reset to zero, and the original total limit will be restored at the beginning of the month. If it remains unused for a long time, the system may lower the total limit.
What should be done when the fully digitalized e-invoice quota is insufficient?
You can apply for quota adjustment, which is divided into automatic system adjustment and manual application. Automatic system adjustment includes regular, temporary, and irregular adjustments; manual applications must be submitted in the electronic tax bureau, filling in the adjustment quota type, validity period, and reason, and uploading materials for review by the tax authority.
What is the initial total issuance amount quota of a fully digitalized e-invoice?
The initial total invoice issuance amount limit is the upper limit of the amount that can be issued in the current month as granted by the system when a pilot taxpayer uses fully digitalized e-invoices for the first time. For enterprises with only the fully digitalized e-invoice channel, the initial limit equals the total credit limit.
