Invoicing in Puerto Rico
A business registered in Puerto Rico charges Sales tax at 11.5% and invoices in USD. Unlike a value-added tax there is no input-credit chain, so the tax sits on the sale itself and the document has to state it plainly. DocsOrigin takes the rate, the document names and the numbering conventions for Puerto Rico from the registry.
Invoicing in Puerto Rico is free forever with DocsOrigin: every document type, every export, no card and no trial.

How reliable is this figure
Graded high: this rate has been checked against a tax-authority or official source. It is still your responsibility to confirm it before you rely on it.
Whatever the grade, your own setting always wins — a rate you enter overrides the registry everywhere, including on documents already dated in the past.

Tax identifier
On a document issued in Puerto Rico the identifier is labelled Tax ID. It is printed in the header of every tax document, isolated left-to-right so it reads correctly in any interface language.
No structural check is applied for Puerto Rico: the format is accepted as entered, because a wrong rule that rejects a valid number is worse than no rule.
Numbering
Puerto Rico does not impose a strict national sequence, but DocsOrigin still numbers sequentially per document type and per year, because a gap is the first thing anyone auditing you will ask about.
Prefix, padding and yearly reset are configurable per document type, and the series is kept separately for each type.

Which document do I issue to a customer in Puerto Rico?

Does DocsOrigin cost anything in Puerto Rico?
No. DocsOrigin is free forever for businesses in Puerto Rico as everywhere else: no subscription, no card, no trial, no per-document fee and no export fee. Optional professional services are the only thing that is ever charged for, and they are quoted per project.
What if the rate for Puerto Rico is wrong or changes?
Set your own rate in the business settings and it overrides the registry immediately, for new documents and for any date. Rates are applied by document date, so an old document keeps the rate that applied when it was issued.
