Obligation to include the recipient's TIN in the SII

A company subject to the Immediate Supply of Information (SII) system asks whether it should use the Spanish Tax Identification Number (NIF) or the NIF of the foreign customers' country of origin in the invoice register. The Directorate-General for Taxes (DGT) responds that the NIF of the Member State where they are established should preferably be used, although the Spanish NIF may also be used.

The question raised

Question raised: Being subject to the Immediate Supply of Information, the taxpayer asks whether, in the billing records corresponding to issued invoices, they must record the tax identification number of the recipient assigned by the Spanish Tax Administration or that of the other Member State.

The DGT's ruling

Para los destinatarios no establecidos en territorio de aplicación del impuesto, la consultante deberá consignar con carácter preferente en la factura y en el libro registro de facturas expedidas el NIF otorgado por el Estado Miembro en el que están establecidos. No obstante, esto no impide que también pueda consignarse el NIF atribuido por la Administración tributaria española.
