What Does E-invoicing Implementation in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia Mean for Your Business?
A practical guide to new regulations and future developments
The Zakat, Tax and Customs Authority (ZATCA) announced that e-invoicing will become mandatory in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia from 4 December 2021, when phase I of electronic invoicing implementation is officially starting. This means that you are no longer allowed to transmit paper or PDF invoices.
However, this is not all. There are some exceptional transactions to which the resolution does not apply, specific types of tax invoice to use, and a new process flow. Our white paper explores these key areas, so you can adjust to the new conditions without negatively affecting your business continuity.
Taxpayers affected by the new regulations are obliged to generate and store electronic invoices as well as associated credit and debit notes. Apart from that, e-invoices need to be issued in Arabic (additional languages are permitted).
