ERP software in Saudi Arabia

Aurex ERP runs natively in Arabic and English with full right-to-left layout, Hijri and Gregorian calendars side by side, and Saudi Riyal as base currency. Invoice layouts, financial statements and payroll documents are produced bilingually, so the same record satisfies an Arabic-language audit and an English-language board pack without re-keying.

Tax and compliance in Saudi Arabia

VAT is charged at 15% (raised from 5% in July 2020). Businesses with annual taxable supplies above SAR 375,000 must register; registration is optional between SAR 187,500 and SAR 375,000. E-invoicing (Fatoora) is mandatory: Phase 1 (Generation) since 4 December 2021, Phase 2 (Integration) rolling out in waves by taxpayer revenue since 1 January 2023. Phase 2 requires invoices in XML or PDF/A-3 with embedded XML, a UUID, a cryptographic stamp, a hash of the previous invoice, and a QR code — cleared through or reported to ZATCA's Fatoora platform depending on invoice type.

Current as of 2026-08. Verify against the tax authority before relying on these figures.

Common questions

Is Aurex ERP ZATCA Phase 2 compliant?
Yes. Aurex generates invoices in the required XML format, applies the cryptographic stamp and UUID, chains each invoice to the hash of the previous one, renders the QR code, and handles both clearance for B2B invoices and reporting for B2C. This is part of the Sales module, not a separate integration you buy on top.
What is the VAT rate in Saudi Arabia?
The standard rate is 15%, in force since July 2020. Aurex applies it automatically by item and customer tax class, and handles zero-rated and exempt supplies separately so the VAT return reconciles to the ledger.
Does Aurex work in Arabic?
Arabic is a first-class interface language, not a translation layer. The entire application renders right-to-left, and documents print bilingually.
