[PE] Boleta (03)

What is a Boleta de Venta Electrónica?

A Boleta de Venta Electrónica (SUNAT code 03) documents a sale to a final consumer. It works like the Factura (01): same items, taxes, discounts and percepción. The differences are below.

Field	Value
`document_type`	`ticket`
`invoice_type`	`debit`
`invoice_serie`	4 characters starting with `B` (e.g. `BABC`)
`invoice_number`	Correlative, 1 to 8 digits, no leading zeros
`e_invoice`	`true`
`currency`	`PEN`, or another currency with `exchange_rate`

What changes from the Factura

	Factura (01)	Boleta (03)
`document_type`	`invoice`	`ticket`
Series starts with	`F`	`B`
Buyer	Business with RUC	Final consumer
Operation types (`reason`)	Includes `0112`	Includes `0113` (Venta interna NRUS); no `0112`
Payment method codes	Optional	Optional, even for cash sales

Everything else (items, taxes[], amounts[], additional_info, relations[], percepción) works as on the Factura (01).

⚠️
Above S/ 700, identify the buyer
For a boleta whose total is above S/ 700.00 (IGV included), SUNAT requires the buyer's identity document and name.

Field by Field

Root Level

`invoice_serie`

B + 3 alphanumeric characters, e.g. BABC. See Series and Numbering.

`reason`

Operation type. 0101 (Venta interna) if you don't send it. See Invoice reasons → PE.

`payment_methods[].code`

Optional. How the consumer paid (cash, debit card, credit card, etc.), as codes from Reference Codes → Payment methods. You can send more than one, e.g. part cash and part card.

`buyer`

Same fields as on the Factura (01). For a consumer use type: "person" and the identity document they gave you (e.g. DNI, 8 digits).
