IRC requirements, GST at 10%, PGK currency, and TIN number — everything PNG contractors need to know about professional invoicing, plus how to generate one within seconds.
Three steps on site. No data entry, no spreadsheets, no laptop.
PNG's formal economy is growing fast — mining companies, government departments, and large commercial clients increasingly require proper tax invoices before processing payment.
A professional PNG contractor invoice should include your business name and contact details, your TIN if GST registered, the client name and address, a unique invoice number, invoice date, description of work, labour hours and rate, materials with individual costs, GST at 10% if registered, and total amount payable in PGK.
You must register for GST in Papua New Guinea if your annual taxable turnover exceeds PGK 250,000. Once registered with the IRC, you must charge GST at 10%, lodge quarterly returns, and issue compliant tax invoices. Below the threshold, voluntary registration may be beneficial if your clients are GST-registered businesses.
