The Zambian Revenue Authority (ZRA) announced that as of July 1, 2024, all VAT registered taxpayers are mandated to issue e-invoices through the Smart Invoice software solution implemented by ZRA.
This announcement follows Zambia’s initiation of e-invoicing plans in 2023. Taxpayers will only be eligible to claim input VAT or deductions based on invoices generated within this new system. The Smart Invoice software solution provides accessibility across various devices and can be obtained by logging into the Smart Invoice Taxpayer Portal.
