What IRAS expects on a credit note

IRAS guidance on GST credit notes asks for:

• the credit note number and date;
• your name, address and GST registration number;
• the customer’s name and address;
• the reason for the credit;
• a description of the goods or services, the quantity and the amount credited;
• the total credited excluding GST, the GST rate and the GST credited;
• the number and date of the original tax invoice.

Use the GST rate on the original invoice: an invoice issued in 2023 was charged at 8%, not 9%.

InvoiceNow

IRAS is bringing in InvoiceNow, the national e-invoicing network, in stages for GST-registered businesses, starting with newly GST-registered businesses from November 2025. If it applies to you, credit notes go through your InvoiceNow solution as well.

Before you rely on it

This page summarizes the rules as published by IRAS; it isn’t tax advice, and the rules change. Check the current guidance, or ask your accountant, before you issue credit notes in volume. If your business is required to issue electronic invoices through a government system, credit notes usually have to go through that system too, and a PDF made here doesn’t replace it.
