- Egypt is implementing a phased e-invoicing and e-reporting mandate for all VAT-registered businesses to modernize tax processes and increase transparency.
- The system requires electronic issuance, signing, and transmission of invoices for B2B, B2C, and B2G transactions via a government platform.
- The rollout began in 2020 with large taxpayers and has gradually expanded to include medium, small businesses, professionals, and foreign entities with taxable activities in Egypt.
- Businesses must register on the ETA platform, obtain a digital certificate, integrate their systems, and ensure invoices meet specific technical and data requirements.
- Non-compliance with the e-invoicing mandate can result in penalties.
