Zambia Smart Invoice

Lodge ZRA Smart Invoices straight from Odoo — VAT, levies, signed JSON and verification QR

Connect Odoo to the Zambia Revenue Authority (ZRA) Smart Invoice regime through the Virtual Sales Data Controller (VSDC). Smart Invoice has been live since 1 July 2024, with standard penalties from 1 October 2024 and input VAT restricted to Smart-Invoice transactions from 1 January 2025 — so every VAT-registered supplier must lodge sales electronically. This connector does exactly that, from the customer invoice you already raise.

What it does

Signed saveSales JSON

Builds the canonical, deterministically serialized ZRA Smart Invoice payload (header plus itemList) for both sales and credit notes, with fixed decimal precision (quantities to 4 dp, money to 2 dp) so the signing string is reproducible.

VAT and levies

Maps invoice lines onto the official ZRA tax labels: standard VAT 16% (A), lower (B), zero-rated (C), exempt (D), out-of-scope (E), plus the Tourism Levy 1.5% (TL) and Insurance Premium Levy 3% (IPL), reporting VAT and levies under separate totals.

TPIN validation

Real structural and mod-11 advisory checks for the 10-digit ZRA Taxpayer Identification Number, on your company and on partners, plus three-digit branch (bhfId) handling so input-VAT claims resolve.

VSDC client (BYOK)

Submit sales and credit notes and read back the receipt signature and internal data. Sandbox and production endpoints are pre-filled from ZRA's published VSDC hosts and remain fully editable. Your device serial and API key are bring-your-own-key and never leave your database.

Verification QR

Generates the ZRA invoice-verification QR (TPIN, branch, receipt signature and receipt number) plus a human-readable reference, rendered to a PNG for your document.

Built into invoicing

Validate, Generate and Lodge buttons live on the customer invoice, a Smart Invoice status follows the document state machine, and a posting hook flags posted invoices automatically. A guided onboarding wizard captures your TPIN, branch and VSDC connection in one step.

Built on the e-Invoice Core Engine

This connector reuses the shared e-Invoice Core Engine for canonical JSON building, the declarative validation framework, the BYOK REST transport and QR rendering — adding only the Zambia-specific tax model, field mapping and VSDC endpoints. Clean, auditable, no duplicated plumbing.

Compatible with Odoo 18 and Odoo 19 (Community and Enterprise).

Disclosure: this module transmits invoice data only to the ZRA VSDC endpoint you configure. No data is sent anywhere else, and your VSDC credentials never leave your database.
