flag Nigeria’s tax ID now recognized globally, enabling seamless cross-border e-commerce via the Peppol network.

flag Nigeria has become the first African nation to have its Tax Identification Number recognised internationally under the ISO/IEC 6523 standard, with the FIRS named the national Peppol Authority. flag This allows Nigerian businesses and individuals to join the global Peppol network for seamless cross-border e-commerce. flag The reform links tax IDs to National ID and corporate registration numbers, cutting duplication and compliance costs. flag The FIRS has launched the MBS e-invoicing platform, requiring large taxpayers to comply by 1 November 2025, with smaller businesses following in phases. flag The move aims to improve tax compliance, reduce evasion, speed up payments, and strengthen Nigeria’s position as a trade and investment destination.
