Nigeria · FIRS Mandate

FIRS e-invoicing is here.
Is your business ready?

Mandatory e-invoicing is rolling out to every Nigerian business in phases. Large taxpayers are already under enforcement. Medium businesses are next, and small businesses follow. The businesses that prepare early avoid the panic, the penalties and the last-minute consultant prices.

The rollout timeline

Enforced since April 2026

Large taxpayers

Already required to generate, validate and transmit invoices through the FIRS platform.

Comply from July 2026 · Enforcement January 2027

Medium businesses (₦1 to 5 billion turnover)

The compliance window is open now. Enforcement and penalties begin January 2027.

Comply from July 2027 · Enforcement January 2028

Small businesses

Your turn is coming. Businesses that set up proper systems now will barely notice the transition.

What compliance actually requires

Structured digital invoices

Invoices generated, validated and transmitted through the FIRS platform in the required format. Paper and free-form PDF invoices will not qualify.

Systems that can do it

Accounting or invoicing software that can generate and transmit compliant invoices, connected via API or an accredited access point provider.

Clean underlying books

Real-time transaction reporting exposes messy books. Compliance starts with records you can stand behind. Penalties apply for non-compliance.
