Why these defaults?
The country code comes from ISO 3166. Unicode CLDR supplies presentation-oriented locale, currency, paper, date, language, calendar, numbering, and direction metadata. Defaults reduce setup time; they do not decide what a valid document must contain.
Recorded official or regional-official language tags: en, hif, fj.
Selected national claims reviewed
Document vocabulary and checks
Core Fiji VAT tax-invoice identity, numbering, line and tax particulars, simplified-invoice boundary, seven-year record retention and fiscal-invoice/TAP boundary are reviewed. Registration, current-rate selection, exemptions, secure-element setup, fiscal transmission and transaction-specific VAT treatment remain separate checks.
