Amazon Invoice Generator

PREREQUISITE: Read ../amazon-shared/SKILL.md for marketplace TLD map, the Ziniao login challenge-loop (password / OTP / hosted-passkey), and version-aware navigation (New Seller Central vs classic; prefer the direct Tax Document Library URL over the menu) before running this generator.

Generate professional tax invoices for Amazon orders by extracting data from Seller Central and producing PDF invoices via ReportLab.

Prerequisites

1. Python deps are pre-installed — the shared workspace venv already has reportlab. Just use python (it's on your PATH). If you get an import error, run: uv pip install -r .claude/skills/amazon-invoice/requirements.txt

2. Resolve seller info (company name, VAT/RFC numbers) — optional, try in order:

   1. Store knowledge — check the store profile directory (shown in your system context, e.g. stores/<store-slug>/) for seller-info.md or notes.md containing seller entity name and VAT numbers.
   2. Order detail page — Amazon Seller Central may show your seller/business info on the order page.
   3. Ask the user — if neither source has the info, ask once. If the user provides it, save it to the store directory's seller-info.md (e.g. stores/<store-slug>/seller-info.md) so future tasks can find it.
   4. Proceed without — the invoice script handles missing seller fields gracefully (omits the seller section). Do not block invoice generation over missing seller details.

IMPORTANT: Stay in your current working directory. Do NOT cd into the skill directory or any global path. Use relative paths for scripts and output.

Determining the Country

You always know the country before generating an invoice. Get it from:

1. Store metadata — the platform_countries field in your store context tells you which countries this store operates in (e.g., amazon: US, UK). If the task targets a specific country, use task_country.
2. Current Seller Central session — you know which country/marketplace you are browsing because you selected it (Seller Central lets you toggle between countries within the same session).

The country field (2-letter ISO code) is required in the JSON you pass to the script. The script uses it to look up the correct tax rate and tax rules.

Supported Countries & Default Tax Rates

The script has built-in tax rules for all Amazon marketplace countries:

Country	Code	Tax	Rate	Prices on Order Page
Saudi Arabia	SA	VAT	15%	Include tax
UAE	AE	VAT	5%	Include tax
Egypt	EG	VAT	14%	Include tax
South Africa	ZA	VAT	15%	Include tax
Turkey	TR	KDV	20%	Include tax
UK	UK/GB	VAT	20%	Include tax
Germany	DE	MwSt	19%	Include tax
France	FR	TVA	20%	Include tax
Italy	IT	IVA	22%	Include tax
Spain	ES	IVA	21%	Include tax
Netherlands	NL	BTW	21%	Include tax
Poland	PL	VAT	23%	Include tax
Sweden	SE	Moms	25%	Include tax
Belgium	BE	BTW	21%	Include tax
Ireland	IE	VAT	23%	Include tax
Japan	JP	CT	10%	Include tax
India	IN	GST	18%	Include tax
Singapore	SG	GST	9%	Include tax
Australia	AU	GST	10%	Include tax
US	US	—	0%	No tax
Canada	CA	GST	5%	Exclude tax
Mexico	MX	IVA	16%	Exclude tax
Brazil	BR	ICMS	17%	Include tax

"Include tax" means the prices shown on the order detail page already contain tax. The script back-calculates: tax = gross × rate / (1 + rate).

"Exclude tax" means prices are pre-tax. The script adds tax on top: tax = subtotal × rate.

Workflow

For each order ID provided:

Step 1: Navigate to Order Detail

Go to Seller Central → Orders → Manage Orders → search by Order ID → click into the order detail page.

Make sure you are on the correct country/marketplace within Seller Central before extracting data.

Step 2: Extract Order Data

From the order detail page, extract the data into this JSON structure. Pass raw strings exactly as shown on the page (e.g., "USD 1,234.56") — the script parses them automatically.

{
  "country": "US",
  "invoice_number": "<Order ID>",
  "date": "<order date, YYYY-MM-DD>",
  "bill_to": {
    "name": "<buyer name>",
    "entity": "<business name if present>",
    "vat": "<buyer VAT number if shown>",
    "rfc": "<buyer RFC if shown (Mexico)>",
    "trn": "<buyer TRN if shown, where applicable>",
    "address": "<full billing address>"
  },
  "ship_to": "<full shipping address>",
  "items": [
    {
      "description": "<product title>",
      "quantity": 1,
      "amount": "<total amount for this line item, e.g. 'USD 299.00'>"
    }
  ],
  "subtotal": "<if shown on page, else omit>",
  "tax": "<if shown on page, else omit>",
  "shipping_total": "<if shown, else omit>",
  "promotion": "<if shown, else omit>",
  "refund": "<refund amount shown on the order page as an absolute value (e.g. a row labeled 'Refund: -USD 12.00' becomes '12.00'); omit if none>",
  "total": "<total as shown on page>",
  "amount_paid": "<if shown, else omit>",
  "currency": "USD",
  "seller_entity": "<from store knowledge, if available>",
  "seller_vat": "<from store knowledge, if available>",
  "seller_rfc": "<from store knowledge, if available for Mexico>",
  "store": "<store name>"
}

Required fields: country, invoice_number, items (with at least description and amount per item).

All other fields are optional — the script derives what's missing.

Note on items: The PDF shows a simplified 3-column table (Item, Quantity, Amount). The amount field should be the total line item amount (quantity × unit price) as shown on the order page.

Step 3: Let the Script Handle Calculations

You do NOT need to calculate tax yourself. The generate_invoice.py script:

1. Parses currency strings — "USD 1,234.56" → 1234.56
2. Looks up tax rules by country code — the country field you provide
3. Prioritizes page values — if the order page shows explicit subtotal + tax + total and no refund is present, the script uses those instead of calculating
4. Handles refunds — if a refund is provided, the script always recomputes from components (items + shipping − promotion − refund) because Amazon's order page shows subtotal before refund and total after refund, so those page values are mutually inconsistent when a refund exists. The derived gross matches the Item total line the customer actually paid.
5. Falls back to country rules — if page values are incomplete, calculates tax from item totals using the country's rate and inclusive/exclusive model

Just extract what you see on the page and pass it through. For each item, provide the total line amount (as shown on the order page) rather than unit price.

Step 4: Add Seller Info (if available)

If seller info was resolved in the Prerequisites step, populate:

• seller_entity: company legal name
• seller_vat: VAT number for the relevant country
• seller_rfc: RFC for Mexico

If no seller info was found, omit these fields — the script handles missing seller data gracefully.

Step 5: Generate PDF

echo '<json_string>' | python .claude/skills/amazon-invoice/generate_invoice.py \
  --output ./invoice_{order_id}.pdf

The script outputs the file path to stdout. Output goes to the current working directory (the task workspace).

Step 6: Save Discovered Information

If you found seller entity details (company name, VAT/TRN numbers) during this task that are NOT already saved in the store's knowledge directory:

• Save them to stores/<store-slug>/seller-info.md using the Write tool
• This persists across tasks so you won't need to look it up again

Step 7: Report Result

After generating, report the file path to the user. If multiple orders were requested, summarize all generated invoices.

Batch Mode

If the user provides multiple order IDs (comma-separated, space-separated, or one per line), loop steps 1-6 for each order ID. Generate separate PDFs for each order.

Error Handling

• If an order ID is not found in Seller Central, skip it and report the error
• If Seller Central requires login, wait for auto-fill (Ziniao) or ask the user
• If seller info is missing, skip it — the script handles missing fields gracefully
• The script exits with an error if country is missing — always provide it
