The days of discounted rates with Dentists, Doctors, Lawyers, Accountants, Engineers and MANY other professionals (I think also included are Graphic Designers, Architects++) may be numbered as they are soon (all I've seen was "later this year") will HAVE to issue Electronic Invoices.
How it will work is they will have a digital certificate, which is a card with a chip that allows digitally signed.
Electronic invoicing is a digital document. A person who buys the e-mail comes a detail like sending invoices ICE for phone bills. It comes along with a file that can be processed by Taxation and also print a voucher. There are companies that offer such service.
(WAIT!!! Is this a SERVICE these professionals MUST BUY INTO to be in compliance?? Is there any checks and balance system in Costa Rica where NON-governmental group investigates to see if any of these type of "required businesses" are owned by family or friends of those suggesting the bills/laws??? HMMMMMM!!!)
The Tributación (tax minister/department) said that there is a wide spread tax evasion by many professionals (they say especially these groups) in Costa Rica.
