You bought something outside Panama and want to record it in facturillo. Receipts from abroad do not carry the QR or the CUFE of a Panamanian electronic invoice, so they cannot be scanned or confirmed with the DGI. That is fine: you add them by hand, and facturillo understands they are from another country.

How to add it

1

On the home screen, tap the scan button (the QR icon) and, in the bottom row of the scanner, tap Manual. In Add manually, attach a photo or PDF of the receipt and tap Analyze with AI, or tap Enter manually to type the details yourself.

2

In the form, tap Foreign in the National / Foreign selector, right above AMOUNT PRO. When you do, the currency shows next to the amount: tap it to pick one in Display currency. facturillo applies the exchange rate for the purchase date, so the amount is converted correctly. Marking a receipt as foreign, the currency, and the conversion are facturillo Pro features.

3

Fill in the rest of the details (title, amount, date, and category) and save. The receipt lands in your list like any other.

On the Free plan the National / Foreign selector does not appear in the form, so the receipt is saved as national and in dollars. You can still record the expense, just with no separate currency and no automatic conversion: that comes with facturillo Pro.

Tip

On a foreign receipt, Panama's ITBMS tax and RUC do not apply, so those fields do not appear. You only need the amount, the currency, and the exchange rate.

Because a foreign receipt is entered by hand, its details are the ones you confirm: it does not go through DGI verification or the «processing» state. Otherwise, it behaves just like any receipt in your list.
