The Egyptian Tax Authority (ETA) has announced that the sixth wave of taxpayers, designated under Resolution No. 405/2024, must comply with the e-receipt mandate. The requirement officially became effective on 15th January 2025, as part of Egypt’s comprehensive strategy to enhance tax transparency and automation. The E-Receipt system, initially scheduled for full implementation in 2024, has experienced delays but remains a key priority for Egypt’s tax reform.
Taxpayers must integrate their POS (point-of-sale) systems or ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) software with the central system to enable real-time validation of transactions. Businesses seeking guidance should verify their obligations using their tax registration number on a dedicated ETA webpage.This move is in line with Egypt’s continued push towards a fully digital tax infrastructure, improving compliance and reducing tax evasion in B2C transactions.
