The Welsh
Government is committed to paying suppliers and organisations promptly. It aims to pay within five
working days of receiving a correctly completed invoice.
Suppliers can
help to ensure that their invoices are paid promptly if all the
information is correct and includes:

name, contact details and bank details

Where
possible, please send invoices to us as a pdf to the email address on the PO.
This is usually: WAGinvoices@wales.gsi.gov.uk. If invoices are sent by post, please
send them to the address on the top of the PO.
