Business receipts do not need to have your name but they do need to have the following:

  • the date of the purchase
  • the name and address of the seller or supplier
  • the name and address of the buyer
  • the full description of the goods or services
  • the vendor's business number if they are a GST/HST registrant

Always get receipts or other vouchers when you buy something for your business. 

It is also possible that a seller or supplier may not provide you with a receipt. In such a case, write the name and address of the seller or supplier, the amount paid for the goods or services, the date you made the payment, and the details of the transaction in your expense journal.
