- Lesotho’s Revenue Services has launched Lekuka, a national e-invoicing platform to improve VAT compliance and reduce tax evasion.
- The system handles B2B, B2G, and B2C invoices, plus credit notes, debit notes, and VAT reporting, with invoice submission via secure APIs and QR-code verification.
- The legal framework took effect on 1 April 2026, nationwide rollout began in July 2026, and the integration grace period has been extended to 30 October 2026.
- Mandatory compliance for all VAT-registered businesses starts on 1 November 2026.
- Businesses in Lesotho should integrate their ERP/invoicing systems with Lekuka to avoid penalties.
