ZATCA requires VAT-registered businesses in Saudi Arabia to issue electronic invoices under its Fatoora framework. The mandate arrived in phases: a generation phase governing how invoices are created and stored, and an integration phase connecting taxpayer systems to ZATCA’s platform, applied in waves that ZATCA announces to the taxpayers concerned. Falling out of step exposes you to penalties and can disrupt your ability to invoice customers at all.
What this covers
- Readiness assessment: reviewing your current invoicing systems, templates and processes against the Fatoora requirements that apply to your business today and next.
- Solution configuration: setting up or adapting your invoicing software to produce compliant tax invoices and simplified tax invoices, with the required fields and QR codes generated correctly.
- Integration support: managing onboarding to the Fatoora platform for the integration phase, including registering your invoicing solution and testing end to end before the deadline.
- Process controls: aligning invoice issuance, credit and debit notes and archiving with ZATCA rules, so daily operations stay compliant without case-by-case decisions.
- Wave monitoring: tracking ZATCA announcements so you know when your business falls within a new integration wave and what must be ready by then.
- Team enablement: training finance and sales staff on what a compliant invoice looks like and which fields must never be edited manually.
