The Goods and Services Tax Network (GSTN) is excited to announce the launch of the E-Invoice Verifier App. This app is a new and improved tool designed to make verifying electronic invoices (e-invoices) easier. It replaces the older e-Invoice QR Code Verifier App and offers more features. As a result, businesses can now manage their invoices more efficiently.
Key Features of the E-Invoice Verifier App
1.QR Code Verification: This feature allows users to check the information inside the QR code. You can then compare it with the details on the printed invoice to ensure everything is correct.
2.User-Friendly Interface: The app has an easy-to-use design. Therefore, it is simple to navigate, even for those who are not tech-savvy.
3.Comprehensive Coverage: The app can verify e-invoices from all six Invoice Registration Portals (IRPs). As a result, it covers a wide range of transactions.
4.Non-Login Based: You do not need to log in or share personal information to use this app. This makes the app more convenient and secure.
Additional Features of the E-Invoice Verifier App
1.PAN-based Search: You can search for e-invoices using the PAN number, which makes tracking easier. For example, if you have multiple accounts, this feature is helpful.
2.Automatic Exemption List: The app creates a list of suppliers who are exempt from e-invoicing. Consequently, it helps businesses stay compliant with ease.
3.Global Search Bar: The app’s search function allows users to find e-invoices across all IRPs. This feature simplifies managing large volumes of invoices.
Benefits of the E-Invoice Verifier App
1.Enhanced Security: Verifying e-invoices with accuracy reduces the chances of fraud. In addition, it ensures that all your GST filings are secure.
2.Increased Efficiency: The verification process is quicker and easier, which saves time. Therefore, businesses can focus on other important tasks.
3.Improved Compliance: The app helps businesses stay compliant with GST regulations by reducing errors.
