What Every Business Owner Needs to Know
Jordan’s tax landscape is evolving fast. With the 2025 rollout of mandatory e-invoicing regulations, businesses are now required to adopt digital solutions that comply with the Income and Sales Tax Department (ISTD). Whether you run a retail shop, restaurant, or consulting firm, understanding these changes is key to avoiding penalties and staying ahead.
Let’s break down what the new e-invoicing regulations mean and how you can comply—easily—with platforms like FawtraTechs.
📜 What Is E-Invoicing According to ISTD?
E-invoicing is the process of issuing and storing digital tax invoices in a format approved by the ISTD. The system requires:
- Real-time submission of invoices to ISTD
- A structured XML or JSON format
- Use of secure QR codes
- Timestamped invoice issuance
- Archiving invoices in a secure digital format
All businesses subject to VAT or general sales tax must issue e-invoices through approved systems that can connect with ISTD servers.
