Why does ETA e-invoicing matter commercially, not just for tax?

Because a cost your customer cannot find on the Egyptian Tax Authority portal is not a cost they can deduct. An invoice you failed to submit becomes their problem as well as yours, which is why the integration needs an exception queue that surfaces failed submissions rather than letting them pass silently.

Why businesses in Egypt choose Shyphan

Contracting, logistics, energy services, hospitality, retail and professional services firms make up the bulk of the Egyptian private sector, and a great many of them still run on spreadsheets and disconnected tools. We put a single system in place - quotes, orders, invoices, stock and collections - without asking the team to change how they actually work.

Egypt applies no VAT today. A GCC-wide VAT has been agreed in principle but is not yet in force, so what matters now is excise tax on tobacco, energy and soft drinks, and corporate income tax at 10% on the foreign-owned share of profits - Egyptian and GCC-owned entities are largely exempt. Returns are filed with the Egyptian Tax Authority through its the ETA portal portal. We configure your finance system for the ETA portal-ready records, riyal and multi-currency working, NOSI social insurance and bilingual Arabic and English documents.

Who pays the 10% corporate income tax in Egypt?

It applies to the foreign-owned share of profits. Wholly Egyptian and GCC-owned entities are largely exempt, which means a joint venture is taxed on part of its profit and not the rest. That split has to be visible in the books from day one, so we set up the entity and ownership structure before any transactions are posted rather than reconstructing it at year end.

Can you file through the ETA portal?

Filing itself stays with your tax agent, and the ETA portal is the Egyptian Tax Authority's portal they use. Our job is to make their work straightforward: a clean chart of accounts, supporting documents attached to entries, related-party transactions visible, and reports they can use directly rather than rebuild.

Do you handle NOSI payroll for Egypt?

Yes. Payroll is structured so the Wage Protection System file can be produced from the same data that drives the ledger, rather than being maintained separately in a spreadsheet, and it reconciles back to your accounts each month.

How long does implementation take?

A single-app rollout for a small team typically goes live in three to five weeks including data migration and training. Multi-entity, multi-currency or heavily automated builds run six to twelve weeks and we phase them, so the first group is working while the next is being configured. You get the timeline in writing with the fixed quote, before any work starts.

Who this is for

Is Software Development Company in Giza the right fit for you?

Software Development Company in Giza suits Egyptian companies that have outgrown spreadsheets but do not want an enterprise rollout. If that is you, the licence usually pays for itself inside the first quarter. We will say so on the discovery call if it will not.

It is a poor fit if you need a heavily bespoke system with no commercial off-the-shelf equivalent, or if nobody internally can own the data. In either case we will tell you on the first call rather than after the invoice.

What Egypt compliance means in practice

Egypt moved further and faster on e-invoicing than most of the region. Invoices and receipts are transmitted to the Egyptian Tax Authority rather than merely kept, and an invoice the ETA has not accepted is not a deductible cost for your customer - which makes the integration a commercial issue, not just a tax one.

Obligation	What the rule is	What has to be configured
Value added tax	The standard rate is 14 per cent, with a schedule of table-tax rates on specific goods and services and a zero rate on exports. Returns are monthly, due by the end of the following month.	Tax codes per rate and per schedule item, and a return that comes out of the ledger rather than being assembled from it.
ETA e-invoicing	B2B electronic invoices must be signed and submitted to the Egyptian Tax Authority portal, and the e-receipt system covers B2C. Your customers cannot claim a cost you have not filed.	Direct integration with the ETA portal, unit and item codes mapped to GS1 or EGS, and submission failures surfaced as an exception queue rather than a silent gap.
Corporate income tax	22.5 per cent on taxable profits, with quarterly advance payments where they apply and an annual return.	A chart of accounts that separates deductible from non-deductible spend at entry, because reclassifying a year of it is the expensive way.
Withholding tax	Withholding applies to a range of local payments at rates that vary by payment type, remitted and reported quarterly.	Withholding rules held against the supplier and the expense type, applied at payment.
Payroll tax and social insurance	Salary tax is withheld under a progressive scale and remitted monthly. Social insurance contributions go to the National Organization for Social Insurance on insured salary, which is not the same as gross pay.	A separate insured-salary basis maintained alongside gross, so the two calculations do not fight each other.
Currency and reporting	The pound has moved sharply, and many contracts are quoted in dollars while the books are kept in pounds.	Multi-currency with revaluation at period end, and a reporting currency for the parent where there is one.

We configure the system to produce what these returns ask for, and we test it against your own transactions before go-live. We are not tax agents: your accountant or tax adviser signs the return, and rates and thresholds change, so treat this as the shape of the work rather than advice. Last reviewed 15 September 2026.
