Benefits of Accely for Nigeria
Stay compliant with the NRS mandate while your finance team keeps working in SAP, with the clearance running quietly behind them.
Real-Time Compliance
Every invoice clears through MBS as it is issued, so you are never left holding one the authority has not yet seen at all.
No Manual Portals
Skip the government portal completely. Invoices go straight from SAP to the NRS, so nobody is left rekeying data by hand.
Fewer Rejections
Structured UBL/XML built to the Peppol standard means far fewer of your invoices get bounced back on a formatting error at all.
Penalty Protection
Real-time clearance keeps you well clear of the steep NRS penalties that land on every missed or unreported transaction.
Ready for Each Phase
As the mandate reaches your turnover band, your SAP setup is already aligned, so the onboarding is never a last-minute drill.
One Clean System
Clearance, reporting, and archiving all sit inside SAP, so compliance is one single system your team already knows well.
Frequently asked questions
What is Nigeria’s e-invoicing mandate? +
Nigeria’s tax authority, the NRS (formerly FIRS), runs the Merchant Buyer Solution, a real-time clearance system. B2B and B2G invoices must be validated through MBS and returned with an IRN before they count as valid tax invoices.
Who has to comply, and when? +
The rollout is phased by turnover. Large taxpayers are already under enforcement, with medium and smaller firms following through 2027 and 2028. If you are VAT-registered and doing B2B or B2G business, it reaches you.
Does Accely’s solution work inside SAP? +
Yes. It runs natively in SAP, so invoices are created, cleared through MBS, and archived without your team leaving the system. There is no separate portal to log into and no manual rekeying of data.
What format does Nigeria require? +
Structured UBL/XML aligned to the Peppol BIS 3.0 standard, which the NRS adopted as a Peppol Authority. Accely builds every invoice to that format, so it clears the national system without formatting rejections.
What happens if we do not comply? +
The Nigeria Tax Administration Act sets real penalties: a fixed fine per missed transaction plus 100% of the tax due, with daily charges for continued default. Real-time clearance through SAP keeps you clear of all that.
