Industries

Built around how each sector actually invoices.

The mandate applies the same technical rules everywhere, but invoice volume, structure, and edge cases look different by industry. Invoxa is configured for those differences from day one.

A closer look

Two structures the mandate treats specifically

Retention billing (construction)

The Ministry has clarified that retention billing common in construction and contracting must reflect net payable amounts per invoice, with a separate invoice issued when retained sums are later released. Invoxa's validation engine enforces this structure automatically rather than leaving it to manual invoice preparation.

Advance payments

Advance payments require a formal electronic tax invoice at the time the deposit is received — not deferred until final delivery. This matters for real estate, project-based services, and any business that takes deposits ahead of delivery.
