In the case of imports, we will consider, for the purposes of record books, the following documents: the invoice of the non-EU supplier of the current goods (only for the purposes of IRPF ), the DUA and the invoice of the freight forwarder.
When the invoice from the non-EU supplier is received and paid in advance of the admission of the current goods at Customs, an accounting receipt (invoice type F6) of the expense for the amount of the same. But if the taxpayer chooses to carry out the registration with the entry of the current goods into the warehouse, said accounting receipt will not be recorded.
When the import occurs, the DUA (single administrative document) will be recorded in the Record Book of Invoices Received from VAT and in the Record Book of Purchases and Expenses from Personal Income Tax. For invoice number and date of issue, you should enter the reference number on the SAD itself and the date of admission by the Customs Administration, respectively.
On the other hand, the "VAT Rate", the "Tax Base" and the "Input VAT Quota" must be entered, as well as the "Deductible Quota" column must be completed.
Under Supplier identification details, enter the details for the importer and record book holder.
When registering the DUA, the following details must be taken into account:
- The "Tax Base" will indicate the Customs Value of the merchandise, plus other taxes that accrue outside the territory of application, plus import taxes and plus accessory expenses that are not part of the Customs Value and that are produce to the first place of destination within the community (Tax Base, box 47 DUA).
- The amount to be paid will be entered as "Input VAT Fee" and "Deductible Fee".
- As a "Deductible Expense" the difference between the Tax Base of the DUA and the amount of the invoice from the non-EU supplier that has been paid in advance of the admission of the DUA. But if the taxpayer chooses to carry out the registration with the entry of the current goods into the warehouse, the Tax Base of the DUA will be recorded.
Any expenses incurred subsequent to the admission of the SAD not included in the tax base of the VAT on the import will generate the registration of separate invoices. The only part of the forwarding agent's invoice which will be registered will be that corresponding to the provision of its service (not the amount of VAT on the import required from the customer as advanced payment).

The input VAT amount is only a deductible expense for Personal Income Tax to the extent that it is not a deductible amount for VAT, as happens when the pro rata rule is applied. But the expense resulting from applying the provisional pro rata will be subject to an adjustment as a consequence of the regularization of the pro rata that is made through model 303/322 in the last period of the fiscal year.
Thus, when the final pro rata is calculated and has been regularized in the declaration-settlement of the last VAT period because it was different from the provisional pro rata, an expense entry will be made for the input VAT quota that is not deductible from VAT in the Purchases and Expenses Record Book, for the amount of the adjustment and the corresponding sign depending on whether the final proration is greater (negative) or less (positive) than the provisional one.
In said entry, "SF" will be entered in the "Invoice Type" column, "G25" in the "Expense Concept" column, the " NIF of the Issuer" will be left without content, In the column "Sender Name" the DEFINITIVE PRO RATA ADJUSTMENT will be entered and, depending on the direction of the regularization, in the column "Deductible Expense" the following will be entered:
-
If the final proration is less than the provisional proration: the amount, with a positive sign, corresponding to the input VAT quota that is no longer deductible in VAT as a consequence of the reduction of the definitive proportion with respect to the provisional one.
-
If the final pro rata is greater than the provisional pro rata: the amount, with a negative sign, corresponding to the input VAT quota that has become VAT deductible as a result of the increase in the definitive prorata with respect to the provisional one.

When the obligor decides to deduct an invoice from an entry corresponding to a previous "Fiscal Year" and "Period" in which it was indicated that it would be "Deductible in Subsequent Period" and said field now has the value "S", in the Deduction Period field the You must enter the "Fiscal Year" and "Period" in which the invoice is deducted.
Thus, if in an entry referring to the year and self-assessment period to indicate the specific Deduction Period (which we assume will decide to do so in a subsequent period Y).
However, when said Period Y arrives in which the obligor decides to deduct said invoice, he will have to make a new entry in the Record Book of Invoices Received with "Fiscal Year" and "Period" of self-assessment Y, completing an "S" in the indicator "Deductible in Subsequent Period" and recording the year and period Y in "Year" and "Period" of the Deduction Period column.
