Brinta issues every electronic fiscal document (e-CF) type you need in the Dominican Republic and sends it to the DGII for you. The validation and calculation logic is the same whether you use the Dashboard, Bulk/CSV or the API. What changes from one document to another is the document_type and invoice_type you send.

Available document types

`document_type` (Brinta)	`invoice_type` (Brinta)	e-CF	Fiscal name (DGII)	When to use
`invoice`	`debit`	31	Factura de Crédito Fiscal	Sale to a business with RNC that needs the invoice to claim ITBIS credit
`ticket`	`debit`	32	Factura de Consumo	Sale to a final consumer
`debit note`, `debit note ticket`, `debit note exports`	`debit`	33	Nota de Débito	Increase the amount of an e-CF already issued
`credit note`, `credit note ticket`, `credit note exports`	`credit`	34	Nota de Crédito	Void, return or discount on an e-CF already issued
`special regime invoice`	`debit`	44	Factura para Regímenes Especiales	Sale to a buyer under a special tax regime (e.g. free zones)
`governmental invoice`	`debit`	45	Factura Gubernamental	Sale to a government entity
`export`	`debit`	46	Factura de Exportación	Export of goods or services
`payment abroad`	`payment`	47	Comprobante para Pagos al Exterior	Payment you make to a foreign provider for services, with ISR withheld

The three debit note variants all produce an e-CF 33, and the three credit note variants all produce an e-CF 34. Use the variant that matches the original document: credit note for an invoice, credit note ticket for a ticket, credit note exports for an export.

Common mistakes

Mistake	What happens	Fix
`invoice_number` is not a 13 character e-NCF of the right type	DGII rejects the e-CF	Use `E` + e-CF type + 10 digit sequence, e.g. `E310000000001` for an `invoice`
`invoice` (31) sent without buyer RNC	DGII rejects the e-CF	Send the buyer, or use `ticket` (32) for final consumers
`ticket` (32) of RD$250,000 or more without buyer	DGII rejects the e-CF	Send the buyer's RNC, cédula or foreign tax ID
Credit or debit note without `original_invoice_id`	Brinta validation error	Always reference the original e-CF
Credit note variant does not match the original document	Wrong DGII reporting	`credit note` for `invoice`, `credit note ticket` for `ticket`, `credit note exports` for `export`
Missing `categories[]` with `list = "income type"`	DGII rejects the e-CF	Send it on e-CF 31 to 46
Issuer company without province or municipality on 44, 45 or 46	DGII rejects the e-CF	Complete `state` and `municipality_code` in the company address
ITBIS or goods on a `payment abroad` (47)	Brinta validation error	e-CF 47 only covers services, exempt, with ISR withheld
`payment abroad` (47) to a buyer with RNC or based in `DO`	Brinta validation error	e-CF 47 is only for foreign providers
More than 7 `payment_methods[]`	Brinta validation error	Group payments by method
Foreign currency not in the accepted list	DGII rejects the e-CF	Use one of the accepted currencies, or convert to DOP
