Invoicing in Palau
A business registered in Palau charges Sales tax at 10% 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 Palau from the registry.
Invoicing in Palau is free forever with DocsOrigin: every document type, every export, no card and no trial.

How reliable is this figure
Graded low — treat this as a starting default, not a fact. The rate for Palau has not been verified against an official source, and it may be out of date or may not apply to your kind of supply. Check it with your accountant or the Palau tax authority and set your own rate before you issue anything.
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 Palau 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 Palau: the format is accepted as entered, because a wrong rule that rejects a valid number is worse than no rule.
Numbering
Palau 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 Palau?
