Electronic invoicing

SRI test and production environments

A short, verifiable explanation for food-service businesses in Ecuador.

Testing or certification

The SRI states that this environment is used to review the issuance schema and correct errors. Documents issued there have no tax validity.

Production

According to the SRI, electronic documents authorized in the production environment do have tax validity. A successful technical test must not be confused with an actual issuance.

Before changing environments

Verify issuer data, the signature, transmission, and the status query. Use the environment appropriate to the operation being performed.

Educational information based on official sources available on the stated date. Obligations may vary by tax regime and the taxpayer particular circumstances. Verify your obligations with the SRI or consult a tax professional.
