Israel Accelerates CTC Invoice Allocation Number Timeline to Combat Fraudulent Invoices by 2026

  • Israel has introduced changes to its CTC system, speeding up the timeline for invoice allocation number requests.
  • Taxpayers must obtain a unique allocation number for invoices above certain thresholds for real-time transaction verification.
  • Changes were enacted through the Law for Achieving Budgetary Goals and Implementing Economic Policy for 2025.
  • The original schedule had a gradually decreasing threshold reaching NIS 5,000 by 2028.
  • The new timeline skips the NIS 15,000 threshold.
  • From 1 January 2026, allocation numbers are needed for invoices of NIS 10,000 or more.
  • From 1 June 2026, allocation numbers are needed for invoices of NIS 5,000 or more.
  • Amendments link VAT compliance with income tax deductibility.
  • Effective 1 August 2025, expenses without a required allocation number are not deductible for income tax.
