Use this page when you need a client-facing invoice for work, goods, or services connected to Turkey. The finished document should identify the seller, buyer, invoice number, issue date, line items, tax treatment, and delivery information clearly enough for review, payment, and accounting. For ordinary domestic practice, Turkish lira is the standard currency, and payment terms are a commercial agreement rather than a separate invoice-format rule.
Turkey uses VAT, called KDV. A Turkish invoice should show the tax type, rate, and amount instead of treating tax as a generic extra charge. The general KDV rate is 20%, with reduced rates of 1% for List No. I supplies and 10% for List No. II supplies such as basic foodstuffs, textiles, books, and similar publications.
A Turkey invoice should include the issue date and document number, seller name or trade name, seller address, tax office, and tax ID. Buyer details should include the buyer name or trade name and tax ID where applicable. Line details need the goods or work description, quantity, price, amount, tax type, tax rate, tax amount, and, for goods, the delivery date and dispatch note number.
Taxpayer identification matters because Turkish invoices use VKN/TCKN and the registered tax office for the seller and applicable buyers. E-document numbering also has a set structure: a three-character unit code plus a 13-digit sequence. That sequence includes a four-character year and a nine-character serial number, starts from 1 at the beginning of each year, and cannot be reused by the taxpayer.
Turkey's Tax Procedure Law e-document framework affects whether a downloaded invoice can stand alone. Invoices between two registered e-Fatura users must be issued and received as e-Fatura, except for stated exceptions. Taxpayers with gross sales revenue or gross business revenue of TRY 3 million or more in the 2022 accounting period or later accounting periods fall within the general e-Fatura mandate.
E-commerce and online sales can add stricter routing and content checks. Certain marketplace, online listing, online advertising intermediary, and online seller categories enter e-Fatura or e-Arşiv transition rules at TRY 500,000 or more gross sales or gross business revenue for 2022 and later accounting periods. Internet-sale e-Arşiv invoices must also identify the online sale and include website, payment, carrier, fulfillment, and return-section details where relevant.
A one-off invoice download works for a simple bill when you already know the buyer details, VKN/TCKN, KDV rate, line descriptions, and e-document route. It also works for drafting a clean record before submitting through the Revenue Administration portal or an approved private integrator where e-Arşiv is required. The main risk is manual re-entry, especially when time, expenses, discounts, or client terms change after the draft.
A managed workflow fits recurring client work. Everhour Billing & Invoicing converts tracked billable time and expenses into invoices, calculates invoice amounts from rates while excluding non-billable tasks, and supports client defaults such as contacts, taxes, discounts, and payment terms. Teams can customize invoice lines by project, task, person, date, or another available breakdown, then export invoices to QuickBooks Online, Xero, or FreshBooks.

Yes. Turkey uses VAT, called KDV, and invoices should show the tax type, rate, and amount. The general KDV rate is 20%, while reduced rates of 1% and 10% apply to listed supplies. Use the rate that matches the goods or services being invoiced.
A Turkey invoice identifies taxpayers with VKN or TCKN and the registered tax office. The seller details should include the tax office and tax ID, and buyer details should include the buyer tax ID where applicable. Missing tax identifiers can make the invoice harder to process.
A downloaded document does not replace e-Fatura when the transaction must use e-Fatura. Invoices between registered e-Fatura users must be issued and received as e-Fatura, except for stated exceptions. Treat the download as a draft or internal record when the official invoice must be issued through the e-document system.
Internet-sale e-Arşiv invoices need to state that the sale was made online and include the website address, payment method, payment date, carrier name and VKN/TCKN for goods shipments, shipment or service performance date, and return-section details for returned goods. These fields prevent an online sale from looking like a generic invoice.
Reusing a document number causes problems. Turkish e-documents use a three-character unit code plus a 13-digit sequence, including a four-character year and a nine-character serial number. The serial number starts from 1 at the beginning of each year and cannot be reused by the taxpayer.
