Reverse Charge Mechanism (RCM)

هذا المحتوى غير متوفر بلغتك بعد.

Nova Industries buys a specialist service from Orion Advisory, a supplier that does not charge tax on its invoice. Local rules require Nova, as the buyer, to recognise and settle the tax itself. Reverse charge accounting separates the supplier payable from the tax liability and, where allowed, records the related input tax credit.

Bravo Hub ERP provides the accounting building blocks, but the tax rate, eligibility, return reporting, and account classification come from your local tax rules. Have a tax adviser approve the template before production use.

AccountPurpose
RCM Tax PayableLiability for tax the company must settle.
RCM Input Tax CreditEligible recoverable tax.
RCM Tax ExpenseNon-creditable portion, when applicable.
  1. Create a Purchase Taxes and Charges Template dedicated to reverse charge.
  2. Add a tax row that credits the RCM payable account at the approved rate.
  3. Add a matching input-credit row when the tax is recoverable, or use an expense account for the non-creditable portion.
  4. Test the supplier payable, tax liability, input credit, and invoice total before enabling the template for routine use.

The supplier payable includes the reverse charge tax

Section titled “The supplier payable includes the reverse charge tax”

Review Add or Deduct, Included in Print Rate, account heads, and the second input-credit or expense row. The supplier should normally remain payable only for the supplier bill when the supplier did not charge the tax.

Split the amount between an input-credit account and a tax-expense account using approved rates or rows.

The accounting pattern is reusable, but the legal rules are not. Use country-specific rates, accounts, returns, and evidence.
