Increase transactional efficiency and ensure complete digital invoicing while staying compliant with e-invoicing in Saudi Arabia
The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA) will implement its e-invoicing mandate with effect from 4 December 2021. From this date, all business entities, including banks & financial institutions in the KSA to which e-invoicing regulations apply, must be prepared to issue, receive, and store e-invoices. This is a giant leap in the Kingdom’s digital transformation journey and e-invoicing will enable payments efficiency and security. It will eliminate error-prone manual invoice processing and reconciliation, thereby addressing fake invoices and reducing the risk of revenue leakage through VAT avoidance. This move will not only make trade more seamless but also ensure tax compliance and enhance transparency.
The e-invoicing regulations will apply to two categories of entities/individuals:
At this time, taxpayers who are not residents of KSA are excluded from the e-invoicing requirement.
You can now successfully prepare for Saudi Arabia’s e-invoice mandate. It is important to understand that data elements required for e-invoicing are a sub-set of the data processed in a VAT system. Thus, to comply with the e-invoice regulations, your bank or business entity will have to ensure that your accounting/billing system for VAT compliance or the VAT engine that you have in place is integrated with the e-invoicing system.
