Odoo for companies in Egypt, connected to the ETA for e-invoicing, with 14% VAT and social insurance payroll.
IT Horizon is an Odoo partner in Salmiya, Kuwait. We implement Odoo 20 Enterprise for companies in Egypt, with workshops by video call and days on site in Egypt when the project needs them. We connect Odoo to the Egyptian Tax Authority for e-invoicing, set up payroll for social insurance and income tax, and keep your accounts in Egyptian pounds alongside foreign currencies.
The Egyptian rules we set up in Odoo.
Odoo includes Egyptian accounting, ETA e-invoicing and payroll packages. We configure them for your company, register Odoo on your ETA portal and test everything on a copy of your data.
ETA e-invoicing and VAT
Invoices signed and sent to the ETA from Odoo Accounting, product and activity codes mapped, VAT at 14%, and the VAT and withholding tax reports.
Payroll and social insurance
Odoo’s Egypt payroll with social insurance contributions, progressive income tax, allowances, leave rules and end-of-service provisions.
Banks and payments
Accounts in Egyptian pounds with dollar and euro transactions revalued, bank statements reconciled, and online payments by card or mobile wallet through Paymob.
Arabic and English documents
Invoices, payslips and reports in Arabic or English, and right-to-left screens for Arabic users.
Implementation and hosting
Workshops, configuration, data migration and go-live on Odoo 20, on Odoo.sh or on servers you choose.
Support after go-live
A team in Kuwait, at most one hour ahead of Cairo, as your first line of support, with response times written into the agreement.
In Egypt, invoices go to the tax authority, so Odoo has to be connected to it.
Egyptian companies submit their invoices to the Egyptian Tax Authority through its e-invoicing system, and only e-invoices count as support for deductible costs. Odoo has an ETA module. We register Odoo as your ERP on the ETA portal, set up the USB signing key for each person who signs, code your products with GS1 or EGS codes and test on the ETA’s preproduction portal before the first real invoice.
Companies the ETA has listed for e-receipts must also report each sale to consumers. If yours is one, we scope the link between Odoo Point of Sale and the e-receipt system during discovery. For payroll, Odoo’s Egypt package calculates social insurance and income tax, and we compare its results with your current payroll before go-live.
