- Sri Lanka’s Inland Revenue Department is expanding its National e-Invoicing System via WEB API integration as part of the 2026 National Budget.
- The pilot phase involves selected VAT-registered businesses with upgraded ERP systems; full integration is expected by end of 2026.
- The WEB API enables real-time transmission of VAT invoice data from ERP systems to the Revenue Administration Management Information System (RAMIS).
- Implementation is phased: Phase 1 targets export-oriented enterprises; Phase 2 will include all VAT-registered persons.
- Sectors already integrated include garment and tea export/manufacturing entities; records submitted via WEB API no longer require manual uploads.
