stdnum.do.ncf

NCF (Números de Comprobante Fiscal, Dominican Republic receipt number).

The NCF is used to number invoices and other documents for the purpose of tax filing. The e-CF (Comprobante Fiscal Electrónico) is used together with a digital certificate for the same purpose. The number is either 19, 11 or 13 (e-CF) digits long.

The 19 digit number starts with a letter (A or P) to indicate that the number was assigned by the taxpayer or the DGII, followed a 2-digit business unit number, a 3-digit location number, a 3-digit mechanism identifier, a 2-digit document type and a 8-digit serial number.

The 11 digit number always starts with a B followed a 2-digit document type and a 7-digit serial number.

The 13 digit e-CF starts with an E followed a 2-digit document type and an 8-digit serial number.
