Greece: Invoice Number Patterns

The Greek Tax Authority, the Greek Independent Authority of Public Revenue (AADE), require that you the Document numbers you send match the following pattern:

{TIN}{Issue Date}{Serial Number}{Doc Subtype}{serial_number}{VRNL Invoice Number}

where:

• {TIN} is the Tax Identification Number (TIN) of either the supplier's or the tax representative's without the country's prefix.
• {Issue Date} the of issue in the DD/MM/YYYY format. See IssueDate.
• {Serial Number} is the serial number of the installation from which the Document is issued. See Greece: Installation Serial Number.
• {Doc Subtype} is the document subtype code according to the Type of Standard Documents provided by AADE (the complete list of codes can be found in the section Invoice Subtype Code). See Greece: Invoice Sub Type Code.
• {serial_number} the series of the invoice if there is one. Use zero if none exists. See Greece: Invoice Series.
• {VRBL Invoice Number} is the invoice number that is specified in the VRBL Document in the Invoice/ID element. See Invoice.
