Accelerate Your Journey to VAT and e-Invoicing Compliance in Qatar

Comply with the emerging mandates

Qatar Ministry of Economy and Commerce’s Plan for Implementing e-Invoicing

Qatar does not currently have mandatory e-invoicing requirements though businesses issue e-invoices voluntarily. The Ministry of Economy and Commerce in Qatar is expected to introduce mandatory e-invoicing soon. But the country must establish a VAT regime before e-invoicing can be rolled out. VAT was expected to become effective from January 1, 2024, but was delayed.

Under the proposed e-invoicing rules, any business issuing e-invoice must be registered with the Qatar Tax Authority. E-invoices are to be provided to buyers within 24 hours of sale, and the Qatar Tax Authority must receive e-invoices within 48 hours of the sale. Further, they must only work with certified e-invoicing providers to ensure compliance. E-invoices must be in Arabic or English only and must include supplier and customer’s names, addresses, and contact information.

What Does it Mean for Organizations

There is already some momentum in adoption of e-invoicing in the country, which will likely accelerate further once VAT is mandated. Currently, businesses in Qatar create and share e-invoices voluntarily. But once the e-invoicing rules come into effect, they will have to update their invoicing processes to ensure compliance. This means overhauling existing manual processes and moving to a robust technology platform that can automate and manage the end-to-end invoicing process.
