The change

Gabon's Finance Law 2026 (Loi n°041/2025, Journal Officiel n°96-quater du 30 décembre 2025) introduced mandatory e-invoicing via the DGI DIGITAX platform. From 1 January 2026, factures électroniques normalisées (FEN) became the legal basis for transactions; a six-month transitional grace period permitted customs documents as substitute for VAT and income-tax deduction purposes. From 1 July 2026, only compliant e-invoices are accepted to support input VAT credits and deductible expenses. The mandate covers all persons liable to corporate tax, business profits tax, simplified flat tax, or VAT.
