Saudi Arabia Moves Forward with Wave 20 of E-Invoicing Integration

The Zakat, Tax, and Customs Authority (ZATCA) has announced the selection criteria for taxpayers included in the 20th wave of the e-invoicing Integration Phase. Businesses with VAT-liable revenue exceeding SAR 1.5 million in 2022 or 2023 are required to integrate their e-invoicing systems with the Fatoora platform by 31 October 2025.

Structured Rollout for Compliance

The Integration Phase builds upon the Generation Phase, which has been in place since 2021. This stage introduces stricter technical requirements, including:

  • Mandatory integration with the Fatoora platform
  • Issuance of e-invoices in a specified format
  • Inclusion of additional invoice fields to standardize tax reporting

To ensure a smooth transition, ZATCA is implementing integration in waves, notifying affected businesses at least six months in advance. Businesses selected for Wave 20 will receive official notifications, allowing ample time to prepare.

Preparing for the Deadline

With just a couple of months until the compliance deadline, businesses in Wave 20 should begin evaluating their e-invoicing solutions to meet ZATCA’s requirements. Early preparation will help avoid last-minute disruptions and ensure seamless integration with the Fatoora platform.
