ALZERP: Fully Compliant Software for ZATCA E-Invoicing Requirements
Business operations in Saudi Arabia needs to compliant with regulatory requirements. One of the most significant recent developments is the introduction of ZATCA (Zakat, Tax and Customs Authority) E-Invoicing, also known as FATOORAH. This initiative aims to modernize the invoicing process by transitioning to structured electronic invoices. ALZERP Cloud ERP Software is at the forefront of this transformation, providing a robust software for ZATCA E-Invoicing requirements.
Understanding ZATCA E-Invoicing
ZATCA’s E-Invoicing initiative aims to digitize the invoicing process, making it easier, faster, and more transparent. It involves generating invoices, credit notes, and debit notes in a structured format through integrated electronic solutions. ALZERP Software for ZATCA integrations ensures a seamless exchange of these documents between buyers and sellers.
There are two main types of invoices under ZATCA regulations:
- Tax Invoice: Typically issued by a business to another business (B2B), containing all the required tax elements.
