- Burkina Faso launched the Certified Electronic Invoice (FEC) system in January 2026, starting a phased transition to digital invoicing.

- The preparatory phase runs until July 1, 2026, after which FEC use becomes mandatory for the first group.
- Non-compliance can result in penalties ranging from XOF 500,000 to XOF 2 million.
