How to recognize the profile

Do not rely on the file extension alone. Inspect the root namespace, customization/profile identifiers, version values and authority-specific envelope.

Production validation stack

  1. 1
    JSON schema

    Confirm that the document is well formed and structurally compatible with the intended GST IRN syntax.

  2. 2
    GSTIN and master data

    Apply semantic and business-rule checks rather than accepting a file merely because it parses.

  3. 3
    Business rules

    Validate currencies, countries, tax categories, units, payment means and other controlled values against the correct release.

  4. 4
    IRP response and QR signature

    Apply the national, network or authority restrictions that narrow the base syntax.

EInvoiceLab’s browser tools provide detection, inspection and technical preflight. A profile is only production-valid after applying the correct official artefacts and obtaining the required network or authority outcome.

Questions people ask

What is GST IRN?

India’s Invoice Registration Portal model producing a signed invoice, Invoice Reference Number and QR code from prescribed JSON payloads.

How is GST IRN validated?

Which version should I use?

The current research note is: Verify current schema and turnover applicability on the official IRP. Confirm release notes at the official source before production deployment.
