We've recently purchased some parts from an overseas company and they have charged VAT.
This is the first time I've come across this (I understand its a value-added tax similar to our GST).
My question is do I need to create a new VAT tax code or can I just use GST when entering the supplier invoice into spend money as a purchase 5-1115???
Hi Cherie_C,
Thanks for reaching out.
Generally, if there is a different tax it should recorded as a different tax code for it not to mix-up with the GST. I would much suggest you speak to a financial advisor as we are not allowed to provide financial advise.
If the financial advisor did suggest to create a new tax code, here is the help article Setting up tax codes (Australia) to assist you in doing so.
Let me know if you require any further assistance with this. I'm happy to assist you.
