Columbia
Taggun provides comprehensive receipt and invoice processing for India, supporting all core functions.
Taggun also offers advanced features for processing receipts and invoices in Columbia, including NIT, Document Type and Document Number support.
Supported Document Types
Taggun's Receipt Scanning API supports the following document types commonly used in Colombia:
- Factura Electrónica: An electronic invoice generated, transmitted, and stored electronically in a format approved by the tax authority (DIAN).
- Factura Manual: A paper-based invoice, either handwritten or typewritten, manually issued by the seller.
- Documento Equivalente: An alternative document used when electronic invoicing is not feasible or practical.
- Comprobante: A receipt or voucher acknowledging a transaction but not necessarily serving as a formal invoice.
Colombia-Specific Enhancements
NIT Normalisation & Validation
The NIT (Número de Identificación Tributaria) is the Colombian tax identification number. Taggun normalises and validates the NIT to the X.XXY.YYY.YYY-Z format (where X is optional and Z is the validation check digit), ensuring consistent representation across all documents.
Document Type Classification
Taggun detects and classifies document types as Factura Electrónica, Factura Manual, Documento Equivalente, or Comprobante:
Stricter validation rules apply to Factura types and Documento Equivalente to ensure compliance.
If the document type is not specifically identified, it defaults to 'Comprobante,' indicating a general transaction proof.
Document Number Extraction
Taggun's specialised model extracts document numbers for various types, which is crucial for tax reporting and compliance purposes.
API Response Fields
These Colombia-specific properties are included in verbose API responses when the features are enabled:
| Field Name | Type | Access Path | Description |
