How reliable is this figure
Graded medium: this rate is believed current but has not been re-checked against an official Jamaica 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 Jamaica the identifier is labelled GST 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 Jamaica: the format is accepted as entered, because a wrong rule that rejects a valid number is worse than no rule.
Numbering
Documents in Jamaica 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.

A worked example in Jamaica
Three lines, priced identically everywhere, run through the real tax engine with the Jamaica registry entry applied. This is what the document looks like there.
