Why accounting teams need direct integration with ZATCA

Manually uploading invoices on the authority’s portal consumes hours each month, exposes you to entry errors, and makes it hard to track each invoice’s status. Direct integration ties your invoices to the Fatoora platform automatically, validates them before submission, and tracks their status in real time.

Native integration

Direct connection to Fatoora with no middleware, including a digital signature, cryptographic stamp, and embedded QR code per the authority's requirements.

Six capabilities that make your integration with ZATCA automatic and reliable

Qoyod’s integration with Fatoora ties every invoice directly to ZATCA, with automatic validation and real-time tracking of every invoice’s status.

Automatic invoice validation before submission

Qoyod checks the invoice's structure, mandatory fields, and tax totals per ZATCA requirements, so no incomplete or incorrect invoice reaches Fatoora.

Direct submission to Fatoora

The system connects to Fatoora automatically and submits every invoice as soon as it's issued, with no need to open the authority's portal or copy XML files manually.

Real-time tracking of each invoice's status

The system shows each invoice's status in real time: approved by the authority, under review, or rejected — with the rejection reason where applicable, so your team can respond immediately.

Handling rejected invoices and resubmission

When the authority rejects an invoice, Qoyod shows the rejection reason and lets you fix and resend it with one click, without rebuilding the XML file from scratch.

Certified digital signature and embedded QR code

The system digitally signs every invoice with a certified cryptographic stamp and embeds a QR code compliant with Phase 2 requirements on both simplified (B2C) and tax (B2B) invoices.

Tax-compliance reports for the auditor

Qoyod issues reports on approved and rejected invoices, submission status, and the VAT return, ready to hand to the external auditor in PDF, Excel, and XML formats.

How Qoyod's integration with ZATCA works

Four steps from issuing the invoice to authority approval and the compliance report — in a single workflow.

Create the invoice in Qoyod as usual

Create the tax or simplified invoice with all its items, taxes, and customer details, or import it from POS or the connected e-commerce system.

The system builds the compliant XML + digital signature + QR

Qoyod converts the invoice data automatically into a UBL 2.1 XML file and adds the certified cryptographic stamp and QR code per ZATCA requirements.

Submits it directly to Fatoora

The system sends the invoice to Fatoora over the direct connection (real-time clearance for tax invoices, reporting for simplified invoices) with no manual work.

Track the invoice status and issue compliance reports

Each invoice's status appears in Qoyod's dashboard in real time, and your team can issue tax-compliance reports and the VAT return for the auditor's review at any time.

FAQ

Have some questions?

Answers to the most common questions about Qoyod’s integration with ZATCA.

How is the invoice validated before submission?+

Qoyod checks the invoice's structure (XML / UBL 2.1), mandatory fields, tax totals, and seller/buyer references per ZATCA requirements. Any gap or conflict is surfaced immediately before sending, so no faulty invoice reaches the authority.

What happens if the authority rejects the invoice?+

Qoyod shows the authority's rejection reason on the status dashboard and lets your team correct the invoice and resend it with one click, without rebuilding the XML file from scratch. Every rejected invoice stays linked to its original record for review.

Does the system support both tax and simplified invoices?+

Yes. Qoyod supports tax invoices (B2B) via direct real-time clearance and simplified invoices (B2C) via 24-hour reporting, generating the appropriate QR code per type per Phase 2 requirements.

Can I upload invoices in bulk at once?+

Yes. Qoyod lets you upload simplified invoices in bulk, with per-invoice status tracking after submission. Tax invoices, however, are submitted in real time over the direct connection per the authority's requirements.

How do I handle credit notes?+

Qoyod supports issuing credit and debit notes tied to the original invoice and submits them to Fatoora in UBL 2.1 format with the digital signature and QR code, while updating the customer account and trial balance automatically.

Are the reports suitable for submission to the external auditor?+

Yes. Reports on approved and rejected invoices, submission status, and the VAT return export to PDF, Excel, and XML, with each invoice tied to its approval status and attachments to give the auditor a complete file.
