Electronic invoicing in El Salvador

In El Salvador, the Ministerio de Hacienda receives DTEs (Documentos Tributarios Electrónicos). Hotelmente FACTURA issues the electronic invoice, the comprobante de crédito fiscal and the credit note, with the consumer electronic invoice as the default for guests.

Your tax profile uses your NIT and NRC, and each location you invoice from is set up as an establishment or point of sale. On lodging, Hotelmente FACTURA starts from 13% IVA and the 5% tourism contribution.

It invoices the payments you choose

You choose what Hotelmente FACTURA invoices: direct bookings, Hotelmente PAY, Booking.com, Expedia, Airbnb and other channels. It reads them from Cloudbeds and you can change the choice any time.

With Hotelmente PAY, the payment through BAC El Salvador and the invoice come from the same record.

Documents Hotelmente FACTURA issues in El Salvador

Can I issue a comprobante de crédito fiscal to a company?
