The FIRS 2026 Mandate
Ops29 Limited

The Federal Inland Revenue Service (FIRS) is deploying the Merchant Buyer Solution (MBS) come 2026 to bring Nigeria’s fiscal processes into the 21st century. This is more than a policy shift; the Nigerian Tax Bill legally requires taxable entities to adopt the Service's fiscalization system.

  • The FIRS Imperative: Mandatory use of the Electronic Fiscal System (EFS) for recording and real-time reporting of all transactions.

  • How Odoo can help: Odoo's native Electronic Invoicing module is engineered on the Universal Business Language (UBL) framework, the exact international standard adopted by FIRS.

How We Deliver as Your SI Partner:

  • We precisely configure Odoo to map your sales data to the FIRS-approved XML or JSON schemas.

  • We guarantee your system fulfills the OECD and FIRS principles of authenticity, integrity, and legibility.

  • We fully automate the non-negotiable reporting window for B2B and B2C transactions, ensuring compliance and peace of mind.

Under the new tax law, a standard static document like PDFs are no longer a legal e-invoice. Validity now hinges on a document being instantly cleared, stamped, and verifiable by the national system.

Your business moves fast. Your tax compliance should move faster.
