The platform allows SMEs to manage their invoicing digitally, enabling them to focus on their core operations rather than administrative burdens.

SMEs, which often struggle with paperwork and manual processes, are set to benefit the most. The digital invoicing solution will allow these businesses to concentrate on innovation and growth.

“By simplifying the invoicing process, we’re empowering businesses to do what they do best—create and innovate,” Atoyebi added.

Additionally, the FIRS restructuring into three distinct operational groups—small/Emerging Taxpayers, Medium Taxpayers, and large taxpayers—underscores the agency’s commitment to offering tailored support.

This new approach aims to provide personalised assistance based on the unique needs of businesses, from street vendors to large corporations.

The E-invoice system aligns with President Bola Tinubu‘s Renewed Hope agenda, which seeks to cultivate a transparent and efficient tax environment.

Adedeji’s initiatives reflect a push towards inclusivity, embracing technology to foster an environment where tax compliance becomes seamless for every Nigerian.

This transformation boosts revenue collection and ensures that funds are available for critical services like infrastructure, healthcare, and education, fostering growth and development across the country.
