In Spain we use the next terms:

   * *IVA* ("Impuesto Valor Añadido") - Amount for the added value tax
     general

   * *NIF* ("Número Identificación Fiscal") - Identification number for
     companies. Before 2008 it was called "CIF" ("Código Identificación
     Fiscal").

     (/Just as a note, for individual persons we have another code
     called DNI number ("Documento Nacional Identidad" = personal
     identification document number); this one doesn't is not related
     to VAT/, /but is common to store it for individual clients that do
     not have NIF/)



We don't have different abreviations for incoming or outgoing VAT, we 
just use "IVA", though we have different names for them:

   * Expense accounts VAT -> "IVA soportado" or "IVA deducible"
   * Income accounts VAT -> "IVA devengado" or "IVA repercutido"

I hope this helps :)
