- Clarification of Invoice Types: A corrective invoice is issued when there are errors in a completed transaction’s details (like identification data or tax rates), while an invoice cancellation applies when the transaction never occurred, highlighting the importance of the transaction’s actual existence.
- Regulatory Guidance on Invoicing: The AEAT FAQs specify that invoices related to non-existent transactions must be cancelled rather than rectified, necessitating the creation of a new invoice for any valid transaction, even if for the same recipient.
- Communication Procedures for VERI*FACTU: For corrective invoices, both the original and rectifying invoices must be communicated to VERI*FACTU as separate records, whereas for cancellations, only a notification of the cancelled invoice is required, simplifying the process for non-existent transactions.
