Egypt VAT Invoice Guide (EGP + Free PDF)

· · Reviewed by NestInvoice editorial team

Egyptian business invoices often need a clear VAT line and registration details in EGP. Generator defaults may start near 14% — confirm the treatment of your supply before you send. Official ETA e-invoice requirements may apply separately; treat this tool as a readable PDF helper, not the ETA portal. Do not copy Saudi or UAE rates onto EG invoices — use the hub /eg.

What an Egyptian VAT-style invoice usually shows

Supplier registration details, unique number, issue date, customer, description, net, VAT when charged, and total in EGP — see what to include.

Keep net, VAT, and gross readable. If you are not VAT-registered, clear Taxes so the PDF does not invent a rate.

Rates and registration

Do not leave a standard rate on a zero-rated or exempt supply. Adjust Taxes to the rate you confirmed.

Regional layout only (different rules): Saudi VAT, UAE VAT.

PDF vs ETA e-invoice

A clear PDF helps the client pay. It does not replace ETA e-invoice channels when mandatory. When the buyer needs an official structured document, treat this tool as a draft or annex.

Frequently asked questions

Does this submit to the ETA e-invoice system?

No. Export a PDF here; use official channels when e-invoicing is mandatory.

Is VAT always 14%?

14% is a common starter default in generators. Confirm the treatment of your supply before locking the PDF.

Same as Saudi Arabia or UAE?

No. Egypt has its own ETA rules and EGP. Use [/eg](/eg), not only an SA or AE generator.

Where do I put my tax registration number?

Under From in the tax ID field. Add the client ID when required.

Quote or invoice?

A quote is a proposal. The invoice is the payment request — keep them separate in your records.
