How does Afirmo handle overseas customers and currency?

Afirmo supports multi-currency invoicing for free on every plan. You can invoice overseas customers in USD, AUD, GBP, EUR, or other currencies.

How it works:

• Create the invoice in the customer's currency
• Set the FX rate at the invoice date (Afirmo prompts you, or you can enter a manual rate)
• The customer pays the foreign currency amount
• Your reporting shows the NZD equivalent for tax purposes

For GST:

• Sales to overseas customers (where the customer is not in NZ) are typically zero-rated for GST
• The tax team confirms the right GST treatment based on what you're selling and where

If you collect payments through Wise multi-currency accounts, Wise feeds connect via Akahu so foreign currency transactions flow through automatically.
