The release of KSA e-invoicing Sandbox version 3.3.5 marks a significant step forward in the Kingdom’s digital transformation journey. This latest update introduces several enhancements and new features aimed at improving the overall user experience and streamlining the e-invoicing process for businesses operating in Saudi Arabia.
The updated e-invoicing system incorporates several enhancements to address validation rule inconsistencies and improve data accuracy. Specifically, the validation rule BR-53 has been modified to prevent it from displaying as a warning when the Tax Currency Code (BT-6) is set to ‘USD’.
To accommodate Saudi Arabia’s specific requirements, new validation rules (BR-KSA-93, BR-KSA-94, BR-KSA-95, and BR-KSA-96) have been introduced to capture Tax Exemption / Exception Reason Code (KSA-41) and Tax Exemption / Exception Reason Text (KSA-42) for prepayment invoice references. Furthermore, validation rules BR-KSA-91 and BR-KSA-92 have been added to include Company Legal Form (KSA-40) and Tax Point Date (BT-7) as indicators for B2G supplies and payment Order Date for Supply.
