“Hello,
The electronic invoicing system in Egypt needs attention, similar to what happened with the electronic invoicing system in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. Therefore, we ask you to pay attention to this matter, as it is not very different from what is implemented in Saudi Arabia. This can be reviewed through the following link:
https://sdk.invoicing.eta.gov.eg/”
Egypt eInvoicing is quite different from eInvoicing in KSA (ZATCA) and Zimbabwe (ZIMRA). However, it’s more similar to Malaysia’s eInvoicing system (MyInvois).
Can you give a clearer idea of what needs to be done and how to integrate Manager.io?
I’m not sure about the steps required to integrate Manager.io, and I couldn’t find any support forums discussing this topic. Plus, there’s no step-by-step guide available.
If you have more relevant resources, like a step-by-step guide, a support forum, or a video tutorial, that would really help in understanding how to integrate Manager.io.
The portal for developers of the electronic invoice in Egypt. Known as “SDK” (Software Development Kit) and is part of the electronic invoice system of the Egyptian General Tax Authority. It contains all the details and technical and technological instructions for integration. This is its website https://sdk.invoicing.eta.gov.eg/
Additional details can be found at https://www.eta.gov.eg/ar/digital-services
which is the official website of the new Egyptian tax system
I am learning about Egypt e-Invoicing and would appreciate help to understand it better.
Could someone provide a business data example to demonstrate how Manager.io is used for Egypt, particularly in the Tax Code section? Egypt has more than 20 Tax Codes, each associated with a specific Tax Subtype. I’d like to understand how these Tax Codes are applied to business data.
Additionally, I would greatly appreciate sample transactions for the following types:
- Invoice
- Credit Note
- Debit Note
- Receipt
- Return Receipt
- Return Receipt Without Reference
Thank you
In Egypt, there are two platforms for electronic invoices, the first is experimental and the second is actual. I can send you the login information to the experimental platform through this link

Tax Code:
In Egypt, tax codes are assigned to transactions based on the type of tax that applies (e.g., VAT, sales tax, etc.), and each tax code corresponds to a particular Tax Subtype. These codes help the Egyptian Tax Authority (ETA) track and report taxes correctly.
allows you to define tax codes for each transaction. For example, if you’re selling goods or services that are subject to VAT, you can assign a specific tax code to each invoice or receipt. The tax code will determine how the tax is calculated, the type of tax (e.g., VAT), and whether it is a standard or exempt rate.
Example of Tax Codes:
- Tax Code : Standard VAT (EG-01)
- Tax Subtype : VAT - 14%
- Applicable to : Goods/services sold at standard VAT rate of 14%
- Tax Code : Exempt (EG-02)
- Tax Subtype : Exempt from VAT
- Applicable to : Certain services or goods that are exempt from VAT under Egyptian law.
- Tax Code : Zero VAT (EG-03)
- Tax Subtype : Zero-rated VAT
- Applicable to : Goods or services that are subject to a 0% VAT rate.
Sample Transactions:
Now, let’s break down some examples of different transaction types in the context of Egypt’s tax codes:
- Invoice (Sales)
- A sale invoice is issued when a business sells goods or services to a customer. you’ll apply the appropriate tax code based on the transaction. For example:
- Example : Selling goods worth 1000 EGP with VAT at 14%.
- Tax Code : EG-01 (Standard VAT)
- Tax Calculation : VAT = 1000 EGP * 14% = 140 EGP.
- Total Amount : 1000 EGP + 140 EGP (VAT) = 1140 EGP.
- Credit Note
- A credit note is issued when a customer returns goods or there’s an error in the invoice (like overcharging).
- Example : Customer returns goods worth 1000 EGP.
- Tax Code : EG-01 (Standard VAT)
- Tax Calculation : Credit = 1000 EGP * 14% = 140 EGP.
- Total Credit : 1000 EGP + 140 EGP = 1140 EGP credit to the customer.
- Debit Note
- A debit note is used to increase the amount payable, often in situations like underbilling or additional charges.
- Example : Additional charges of 500 EGP are added to a previous invoice.
- Tax Code : EG-01 (Standard VAT)
- Tax Calculation : VAT = 500 EGP * 14% = 70 EGP.
- Total Amount : 500 EGP + 70 EGP = 570 EGP added.
- Receipt
- A receipt is issued when a payment is made (it records the payment).
- Example : Receiving a payment of 1140 EGP for the initial sale invoice.
- Tax Code : No tax code is directly associated with the receipt itself, but it will be tied to previous invoices.
- Return Receipt
- A return receipt is used when the goods are returned and the business receives the goods back from the customer.
- Example : Customer returns goods worth 1000 EGP and the business receives them back.
- Tax Code : EG-01 (Standard VAT) if the goods were initially sold with VAT.
- Tax Calculation : Refund VAT = 1000 EGP * 14% = 140 EGP.
- Return Receipt Without Reference
- A return receipt without reference is issued when a payment is returned or refunded without referencing a specific original transaction (for example, a general refund).
- Example : A general refund of 1000 EGP without tying it to a specific invoice.
- Tax Code : This can be handled with the applicable tax code, but it does not directly reference the original sale. VAT treatment will depend on the transaction.
Differences in the Terms:
Here’s a quick summary of the differences between these terms:
- Invoice : Issued for sales of goods or services. It includes tax and specifies the amount owed by the customer.
- Credit Note : Issued when goods are returned or when there’s an error on an invoice (e.g., overcharging).
- Debit Note : Used to increase the amount payable, often due to underbilling or additional charges.
- Receipt : Issued when a payment is made for an invoice or transaction.
- Return Receipt : Used when goods are returned by the customer, and the business receives the goods back.
- Return Receipt Without Reference : Used for general refunds that are not linked to a specific sale or invoice.
Thank you for the explanation. Your explanation is very helpful I understand how Egypt eInvoicing works.
From this application, I conclude that we only need to send Sales, Credit Notes and Debit Notes.
For Debit Note I don’t understand what transactions we should report, is Debit Note on group Purchase? Or is the Sales by adding a certain sign so that EGS will converts it into a Debit Note?
Regarding TaxCodes, there are 55 Tax Type - SubType in total, should they all be added in Manager? or just a specific TaxCode? and where can we get the Tax Rate for all these TaxCodes?
These files contain tax rates in Arabic and English.
