TRA — Tanzania e-invoicing

Invoicerr does not support Tanzania

No Tanzania data file exists anywhere in this repository — no country policy, no identifiers, no tax system, no transmission channel. Nothing on this page is implemented. It is here so that someone who wants Tanzania support knows what adding it would involve. The countries Invoicerr does cover are listed in the country directory.

Tanzania's e-invoicing is administered by the TRA, the Tanzania Revenue Authority, through its e-Invoice System, integrated with e-Levy reporting and referred to in places as VFD.

What supporting Tanzania would involve

System	TRA e-Invoice System (e-Levy integration)
Authority	TRA — Tanzania Revenue Authority
Format	A national format (VFD). No provider in backend/src/modules/documents/formats/ builds it today.
Transmission	Submission to the TRA e-Invoice System. No transport in backend/src/modules/documents/transports/ talks to it today.

Inherited, unverified

Carried over from an earlier research pass in this repository's own history, and never checked against a primary source. Leads, not facts — confirm every line before writing it into a data file.

• Mandatory for all businesses from 2023, with continuous real-time reporting.
• Described as a clearance model, integrated with e-Levy reporting.

Which catalogues a contributor would add

Adding a country is data, not code. Adding a country is the procedure and the contract each file has to satisfy; this is only the shopping list for Tanzania.

• country-policy/data/tz.json — which document actions Tanzania allows. Start here: without this file every action is refused with a 403, naming the country.
• country-identifiers/data/tz.json — which national identifier a party must carry.
• tax/tax-systems/data/tz.json and vat-rates/data/tz.json — the tax kind, and the rate ladder offered on an invoice line.
• correction-routes/data/tz.json — all eleven canonical correction routes, unverified where unresearched, never omitted.
• b2g-routing/data/tz.json — the channel and format a Tanzanian public buyer requires.
• transports/channel-policy/data/tz.json — whether a channel is legally required of a seller established in Tanzania, and from what date.
• archive/retention/data/tz.json — how long an archived document is kept, and what the duration is counted from.

Add mentions/, content-requirements/, country-fields/, reporting/ and domestic-reverse-charge/ only where the law actually gives them content.

Data alone will not finish the job here: the TRA e-Invoice System is a transmission channel this repository does not implement, and the VFD format has no format provider. Both are code, not a JSON file — see When a country needs more than a file.

Want Tanzania supported?

Check the open compliance issues first. If there is no issue for Tanzania, open one and name which of the files above you need — a request that names one mechanism is far more actionable than "please add Tanzania".
