• Guidance: Revenue Services Lesotho's VAT 105 guide records that a valid VAT invoice must prominently say Value Added Tax Invoice or VAT Invoice; identify both supplier and recipient by commercial name, postal and physical address, Taxpayer Identification Number and VAT registration number; carry an individualised consecutive invoice number and issue date; describe the goods or services with quantity or volume; and separately show consideration, VAT and VAT-inclusive consideration, or state that consideration includes VAT at a stated rate. It also describes original/copy handling and credit/debit-note adjustments. This local preview does not validate taxpayer or VAT registrations, determine taxable-supply status or entitlement to input VAT, create an official original/copy, process notes, file/pay VAT, or determine VAT/exemption and transaction-specific treatment.Evidence LS_RSL_VAT_105_INVOICE_RULES · reviewed 2026-07-18 · review by 2027-01-18 · automation advisory only
