Delivery note and eTIMS in Kenya
- A delivery note is a record of goods sent or received. We did not find a KRA rule that makes it a tax document. Keep one with each delivery.
- Since 1 September 2023, the eTIMS electronic tax invoice system applies to all businesses, not only VAT-registered ones (Finance Act 2023).
- For a sale, issue an eTIMS tax invoice through KRA's system.
- KRA says a business expense without a valid eTIMS tax invoice is not deductible for income tax from 1 January 2024.
Source: Kenya Revenue Authority (KRA) VAT page and the eTIMS public notices of November and December 2023, read 31 October 2026. None of them mentions delivery notes. Finance Act 2023 for the eTIMS rule. Confirm on kra.go.ke.
