- Cabo Verde requires electronic invoices and other fiscally relevant documents to be issued through the national fatura eletrónica system, in XML, digitally signed, and submitted to DNRE for validation/authorization; PDF/email is not sufficient.
- Law No. 69/X/2025 adds a mandatory QR code and Unique Document Identifier (IUD) for invoices and other electronically issued fiscally relevant documents from 1 January 2026.
- The e-invoicing regime has been phased in since Decree-Law No. 79/2020, with further rules for taxpayer categories in 2021–2022 and self-billing introduced by Portaria No. 56/2023, effective 1 January 2024.
- Public-sector suppliers are not under a separate B2G e-invoicing regime; they follow the same national e-fiscal document rules, including XML, digital signature, DNRE validation, and from 2026 the QR code/IUD requirements.
