  • Cancellation or suspension of the supplies (either wholly or partially) after the orginal Document has been issued.
  • If there is a change or amendment to the supply, which leads to a change in the amount of VAT that is due.
  • If there is an amendment to the supply's value which is pre-agreed between the Buyer and Supplier.
  • If there is a refund.
  • If there is a change in the Buyer's or Supplier's information.
