Sudan's Taxation Chamber runs an electronic invoice platform for B2B and B2C tax invoices and announced on 4 May 2026 that it had resumed operating it. The VAT Act empowers the Secretary General to require businesses to use invoicing devices, but no order doing so has been published. The Chamber has named 15 November 2026 as the last day for paper invoices when the government pays its suppliers. Wartime disruption limits what can be verified.

Sudan e-Invoicing Overview
B2B
voluntary
The Taxation Chamber's e-invoicing services page offers a registration form, user guides, technical requirements and a desktop client, and its registration form lets a taxpayer apply for business invoices (B2B), consumer invoices (B2C) or both. The 4 May 2026 announcement says the system resumed in accordance with the tax laws and regulations in force but cites no provision. Section 28(5) of the Value Added Tax Act 2001 lets the Secretary General bind any person carrying on a commercial, industrial, professional or service activity to use the machine, which the Act defines as a device for issuing financial receipts and electronic invoices. No order made under that power has been found, and no deadline is set.
B2G
planned
No published decision or circular sets an e-invoicing rule for supplies to government. On 10 September 2026 the Taxation Chamber's official Telegram channel posted a video stating that 15 November 2026 is the last day for dealing with the paper invoice to settle government obligations to suppliers, and the Chamber's home page carries a banner with the same date. Neither names a legal basis, the public bodies concerned or any threshold, and no format for invoices to government has been published.
B2C
voluntary
The same platform issues consumer invoices. Under the Taxation Chamber's user manual , a B2C invoice carries the buyer's 11-digit national number, while a B2B invoice carries the buyer's tax identification number. Registration is by application, and the form commits the applicant to issue invoices within an approved monthly quota under the regulations in force, which are not identified. No official text found requires retailers to use the system.

The Taxation Chamber describes the electronic invoice project as a system taxpayers use to issue invoices electronically, with the invoice data sent instantly to the Chamber and posted to taxpayer records in its core tax system. The project page names devices for issuing invoices: fiscal processors for taxpayers dealing with other taxpayers and payment recording machines for those selling to final consumers. The 2026 platform is a Windows desktop client that, according to the technical requirements , does not work offline. Per the user manual , an issued invoice is final and can be reversed only through a cancellation request approved by the company's system administrator and then by the Taxation Chamber. A supplementary invoice records paper invoices written while the system was down. No official text found requires the Chamber to validate an invoice before it is issued, and no data format or schema is published.
