How to update the GST Number of your Customer via InvoiceExpress?


How UEN and GST Number are used (important distinction)

1. UEN (mandatory for InvoiceNow routing)

  • The UEN is the legal business identifier

  • It is used by:

    • InvoiceNow / Peppol network for routing

    • CorpPass authorisation

    • IRAS C5 (Corner 5) submission

  • The UEN field must always contain the customer’s UEN, not the GST number.


2. GST Registration Number (mandatory for GST purposes)

  • The GST registration number is required when GST is charged

  • IRAS requires this to:

    • Validate GST charged

    • Perform wrongful GST checks

    • Support GST InvoiceNow submission

How Link4 helps (practical advantage)

Link4’s InvoiceExpress solution:

  • Separates UEN (business identifier) and GST registration number

  • Automatically maps:

    • UEN → InvoiceNow routing

    • GST number → IRAS tax validation
