How reliable is this figure

Graded medium: this rate is believed current but has not been re-checked against an official New Caledonia source recently. Verify it before issuing, and override it in your settings if it has moved.

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 New Caledonia the identifier is labelled VAT number. 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 New Caledonia: the format is accepted as entered, because a wrong rule that rejects a valid number is worse than no rule.

Numbering

Documents in New Caledonia are expected to run in an unbroken sequence. DocsOrigin allocates the number at the moment of issue — never earlier — so a draft that is abandoned does not burn a number and leave a gap you have to explain.

Prefix, padding and yearly reset are configurable per document type, and the series is kept separately for each type.
