What the pack carries

Charts of accountsWhat a company installs, and who each chart is published for.

• default (default) — 142 accounts, for companies

TaxesHow many the pack carries, at which distinct rates, and which treatments it can express.

12 taxes at rates of 0, 15

domestic, exempt, export, foreign_services_received, import

Periodic declarationThe form the accounts are read into, the cadences it is filed on, and how many boxes it has.

• ET-VAT — 14 boxes, filed month

• the last day of the month after the period

The file it is deposited asThe brick of packages/formats that writes it, where one exists.

• filed by hand on the administration’s portal

Electronic invoicingThe profile the country imposes, the day it starts, and the text that imposes it.

no profile — no obligation in law

Ethiopia has no structured-invoice exchange format (no UBL, CII, Peppol or EN 16931 profile has been published) and no ISO 6523 party scheme, so `profile`, `party_scheme` and `vat_scheme` are null. What exists is a clearance model: Electronic Invoicing System Administration Directive No. 1142/2026 (9 June 2026) requires an invoice to be registered in real time on the Ministry of Revenues platform, which returns an Invoice Registration Number (receipts: a Receipt Reference Number) and a QR code, and the Tax Administration Amendment Proclamation No. 1434/2026 (in force 30 July 2026) raises the penalties. The directive is in force but no nationwide go-live date, rollout schedule or grace period had been published on 9 October 2026, and fiscal cash registers remain in use; `obligation` is therefore `none` until the Ministry activates taxpayers, and the clearance itself is outside the core. The gap is recorded in docs/international.md and in this pack's README.

Where the open core stops.

The line is operational, not functional. Everything that keeps working on its own is open core; what needs credentials, a certificate or a channel somebody keeps running is the hosted edition.
