Mandatory reporting of Six digit HSN Code on Invoice for taxpayers having AATO more than Rs 5 Crores

Advisory: GST E-Invoice System

 

As per the Notification No.78/2020 – Central Tax dated 15th October, 2020 ,  it is mandatory for the taxpayers to mention 6-digit HSN Codes for their outward supplies having AATO more than Rs 5 Crores.

After a few weeks of time , e-Invoice System will not accept 4-digit HSN codes.  The date for blocking e-Invoice generation having HSN code as 4-digits will be intimated shortly in this portal.

 

So, please make necessary changes in the system to report 6-digit HSN codes to e-Invoice Portal and comply by the notification.

 

You may verify all your HSN codes in the ( https://einvoice1.gst.gov.in ) portal under Search-->Master-->HSN Codes and also test in the sandbox system ( https://einv-apisandbox.nic.in ).

In case the 6 digit HSN code is not available, you may raise a ticket at Helpdesk so that it can be included in the system.
