Preparing Tilloza for KRA eTIMS Integration

Review business requirements, invoice configuration and setup with the Tilloza team before using the integration.

Last documentation update: October 2, 2026

Integration Walkthrough Steps

  1. 1Confirm the applicable eTIMS requirements for your business with KRA or a qualified tax adviser. Non-VAT status alone should not be treated as an exemption.
  2. 2Review current KRA onboarding guidance and confirm the appropriate integration arrangement for your business.
  3. 3Contact the Tilloza setup team to confirm the supported configuration and credentials needed. Do not share credentials through public channels.
  4. 4Have your tax adviser review product tax classifications and applicable rates. Do not infer a tax classification from a broad product category.
  5. 5Review invoice details and submission status during setup with the team before relying on the integration for daily invoicing.

Important Deployment Checklist Tips

  • ▪An active internet connection is required for selling and electronic invoice transmission. If connectivity is interrupted, restore the connection and check the transaction status before retrying. Contact support if an invoice status is unclear.
  • ▪Consult current official guidance at https://www.kra.go.ke/ for tax requirements. This setup overview is not tax advice, and integration does not guarantee compliance or protection from penalties.
