# Issue invoices to Australia and New Zealand customers

Invoices sent to your customers in Australia and New Zealand must meet specific requirements as set by both the [Australian Tax Office](https://www.ato.gov.au/Business/GST/Tax-invoices/) and the [Internal Revenue Department of New Zealand](https://www.ird.govt.nz/gst/tax-invoices-for-gst/how-tax-invoices-for-gst-work). 
To ensure that the requirements are met, you should include the following information when you use Stripe to generate one-off invoices or create subscriptions. Currently, this feature is available for Stripe accounts based in Australia and New Zealand. 
1. Include a [Tax Rate](https://stripe.com/docs/api/tax_rates) object on your Invoice or Subscription object. 
1. Add your business’s Australian ABN or New Zealand GST number as tax IDs in your [account’s invoice settings](https://stripe.com/docs/billing/invoices/account-tax-ids). Set the tax ID to default if it should appear on every invoice. 
1. The Customer object associated with the Invoice or Subscription should include:
1. An attached AU_ABN or NZ_GST [Tax ID](https://stripe.com/docs/api/customer_tax_ids) object. This will ensure that ‘Tax Invoice’ is labeled at the top of the generated invoice.
1. An [address](https://stripe.com/docs/api/customers/create#create_customer-address) for the customer.
