- Exemptions and Consolidation Rules: The new guidelines specify that certain international organizations are exempt from issuing e-invoices, including self-billed invoices. Additionally, consolidation of self-billed transactions is generally disallowed, with exceptions for claims from insurance companies to non-business individuals and transactions involving taxpayers’ overseas branches.
