KRA, Treasury integrate eTIMS with IFMIS as govt suppliers face new invoice rules

The Kenya Revenue Authority (KRA) and the National Treasury have integrated the Electronic Tax Invoice Management System (eTIMS) with the Integrated Financial Management Information System (IFMIS), bringing new requirements for businesses supplying goods and services to government entities. This integration is part of Kenya's Digital Transformation Agenda and aims to enhance transparency, accountability, and efficiency in government transactions.

Suppliers must now generate valid eTIMS invoices and ensure that invoice details match those recorded in eTIMS before submitting their invoices for payment through IFMIS, highlighting the importance of accurate tax records and compliance status. The integration is expected to automate tax invoice validation and improve financial processes across government entities, providing KRA with greater visibility into transactions involving businesses supplying the public sector.
