Saudi Arabia Sets Criteria for Next Phase of E-Invoicing Implementation

Type: Legislation

The Saudi Zakat, Tax, and Customs Authority (ZATCA) announced on April 26, 2024, the detailed criteria for the eleventh wave of the integration phase of the country’s new E-Invoicing (FATOORA) system. This next step is scheduled to commence on November 1, 2024, specifically targeting taxpayers who reported VAT taxable revenue exceeding SAR 15 million for the years 2022 or 2023. The integration phase, initiated on January 1, 2023, has been progressively enrolling taxpayer groups based on descending revenue thresholds, ensuring a methodical and tiered rollout. This approach facilitates the introduction of necessary technical and business requirements for electronic invoices and solutions, as well as their seamless integration with ZATCA’s existing systems. The systematic inclusion of taxpayers by revenue size aims to enhance compliance and streamline tax administration processes across the kingdom. With each phase, ZATCA extends the reach of the FATOORA system, further embedding efficiency and transparency into Saudi Arabia’s fiscal framework.
