### Billing Addresses

In the top header section of creation flow, you will see seller's (your) and buyer's (B2C/B2B) billing addresses along with billing details.

**Seller (Your) Billing Details**

Invoices will automatically use the **Destination-wise** billing addresses from your Oganization's Settings page. To update any info in your billing details, please update them in from `Organization > Settings` from the **Billing Addresses** section. [Checkout the product documentation](https://sembark.com/travel-software/docs/contact-and-billing-addresses.md) for more details.

::: note Destination-wise and Primary Addresses

Invoices will use destination-wise billing address and fallback to your primary billing address if not specified. When updating your billing address details, please make sure you are updating the correct address.

:::

**Buyer (B2B/B2C) Billing Details**

Software will automatically pick the billing details from the B2B (Trip Sources) and B2C (Guests) if you have updated the same in source details. You can also update the buyer's billing details directly from the Invoice creation/updation flow.

### Place of Supply

In most of the cases, place of supply will determine the type of taxation applicable in your sales. The place of supply should be according to the provided services and your accounting rules. Please consult with your accounts team and government rules to ensure proper `place of supply` is selected for your sales.

### Particulars

All services and their taxation details must be provided with a proper description of every item. Using the taxation details from the quotation, system will auto-fill the particulars and taxation details. You **MUST verify and ensure** that these details are as per your accounting and government rules.

::: caution Liability and Correctness
