I want to export some items to Nepal. The total amount of export is 1,00,000. I do not have any LUT yet so I will include IGST in the invoice which comes out to be 18,000.
Now my total invoice amount becomes
Net – 1,00,000
IGST – 18,000
Grand Total = 1,18,000 INR
Now the person in NEPAL will not pay this GST to me because he has nothing to do with this 18% tax which I included in the invoice. What should I show in the invoice to credit this 18,000 INR because the person in NEPAL will only pay me 1,00,000 even though the invoice amount is 1,18,000.
Please tell me how to show 18,000 pre-paid in the invoice for export with IGST?
Thanks,
Exporter Seeks Advice on Avoiding IGST for Nepal Shipments; Experts Suggest Obtaining LUT and Showing Tax Breakup An individual is seeking advice on exporting goods to Nepal without a Letter of Undertaking (LUT), resulting in an invoice that includes Integrated Goods and Services Tax (IGST). The exporter is concerned about the Nepalese buyer not paying the IGST portion. Respondents suggest showing the tax breakup in invoices for compliance, obtaining an LUT online to avoid IGST payment, and using the Application Reference Number (ARN) as proof of LUT. They discuss the necessity of an Import Export Code (IEC) and clarify that a GST Identification Number (GSTIN) may suffice. The process involves preparing commercial and tax invoices, filing a bill of export, and potentially generating an e-Waybill. (AI Summary)
