How e-invoicing works in Bolivia
First, the required data is extracted from the customer's ERP system and converted into the XML standard defined by the Tax Information Service (SIN). Various data validation methods are used to ensure that all required information is complete and correct.
In the next step, each electronic invoice will be digitally signed to ensure its authenticity and integrity. In addition, the taxpayer will manage the Unique Daily Invoicing Code (CUFD) and insert it into the invoices to properly declare them to the SIN.
Once the invoices have been validated by SIN, the documents are automatically sent to the recipients in the previously agreed format via secure and reliable communication channels such as private VAN, EDI gateway, HTTPS, SFTP, X400, OFTP, AS2 or AS4.
