Egyptian E-Invoice
Integrate Zoho Books natively with the Egyptian Tax Authority (ETA) for zero-touch electronic invoicing.
The Burden of Manual Compliance
Complying with the ETA e-invoicing mandate shouldn't force you to abandon your favorite accounting software or hire data entry clerks.
Double Data Entry
Generating invoices in Zoho Books, then manually re-typing the exact same data into the ETA portal wastes hours of productive time.
Validation Errors
Manually copying UUIDs, tax brackets, and GS1/EGS item codes often leads to fatal validation rejections.
Missing Deadlines
Delays in the manual submission pipeline can result in steep government fines and compliance penalties.

Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions from Egyptian businesses about ETA e-invoice compliance and Zoho Books integration:
How does Zoho Books integrate with the Egyptian Tax Authority (ETA) e-invoice portal?
Wanas Apps provides a certified API integration between Zoho Books and the ETA portal. When you generate an invoice in Zoho Books, our integration automatically formats it to the ETA XML schema, applies your digital signature (USB token/eSeal), and submits it to the portal — returning the validation status back into Zoho Books in real time.
Does Zoho Books natively support Egyptian e-invoicing, or is a third-party integration needed?
Zoho Books does not natively support ETA e-invoice submission for Egypt. Wanas Apps has built a dedicated integration layer that enables one-click submission, covering both Phase 1 (B2B) and Phase 2 (B2C and B2G) mandates. This is a production-grade solution deployed for multiple Egyptian enterprises.
What product coding system is required for Egyptian e-invoices — GS1 or EGS?
The Egyptian Tax Authority requires all products and services to be mapped to either a GS1 international barcode or an EGS (Egyptian Global Standard) code. Wanas Apps handles this mapping as part of the integration setup, coding your entire Zoho Books item catalog to the correct ETA-approved standard.
What happens if an e-invoice is rejected by the ETA portal?
The integration immediately pushes the rejection reason back into the corresponding Zoho Books invoice record as a custom field. Your team sees the exact ETA error code and description without leaving Zoho, allowing them to correct and resubmit with a single click — no portal login required.
Can I submit credit notes and debit notes through the ETA e-invoice integration?
Yes. The integration fully supports all ETA document types: standard invoices (B2B and B2C), credit notes, and debit notes. All document types are formatted to the ETA's required XML schema and submitted through the same one-click workflow directly from Zoho Books.
