Small taxpayers in Mauritius - VAT-registered businesses with annual turnover below MUR 10 million - are being phased into MRA e-invoicing in 2026. This page covers the rollout, what to do now, and how Codeblix helps small businesses comply.
Who is a small taxpayer?
Small taxpayers are VAT-registered businesses with annual turnover below MUR 10 million. This category covers sole traders, micro-businesses, small retailers, and small service providers.
What is the deadline?
The MRA is phasing small taxpayers into e-invoicing in 2026, with the exact dates staggered by sub-category and registration date. Check the MRA portal for the deadline applicable to your business.
What do I need to do?
- Confirm your taxpayer category with the MRA.
- Choose an MRA-listed EBS from the MRA list. For small taxpayers, a low-cost plan with invoicing essentials is typically enough.
- Sign up and configure your business profile.
- Import your customers and items.
- Start issuing MRA-fiscalised invoices.
What if I am below the VAT threshold?
Turnover below MUR 3 million does not automatically settle the question because some prescribed activities require VAT registration regardless of turnover. Confirm the business category and current e-invoicing phase with MRA.
How Codeblix helps small taxpayers
- MRA-listed EBS (SN 95)
- Codeblix EBS starts at MUR 970 total per month per company, with a maximum of MUR 2,000 per month. No VAT is added. The price depends on invoice volume, processing needs and your current system or integration complexity. All EBS features, supported integrations, unlimited users and technical support are included in your agreed subscription. No onboarding fees or additional Codeblix EBS fees. Unlimited invoices are subject to fair use. Unlimited invoices cover normal business use within your agreed processing scope. Bulk imports and AI reading are processed within service capacity; file and provider usage limits apply. If your invoice volume, processing needs or system connection changes substantially, we review the scope with you and agree any subscription change before it takes effect, within MUR 970–2,000 per month. There are no automatic per-invoice overage charges.
- 14-day free trial, no credit card
- Set up in minutes, no accountant required

Practical compliance checklist
For a Mauritius business, compliance is not only about knowing the rule. The system must make the correct action easy for staff every day. Check that invoices are numbered correctly, VAT is calculated consistently, QR and IRN details are stored, credit notes are linked to the original invoice, and offline transactions are visible until they are fiscalised.
Owners should also confirm who can create, edit, cancel, or credit a document. Strong permissions and clear reports reduce the risk of mistakes during busy periods and make it easier to answer accountant or MRA queries later.
How Codeblix supports this
Codeblix is built as an MRA-listed EBS solution provider platform, so compliance features sit inside the normal billing workflow. Staff do not need to export data to a separate tool just to meet the basic fiscalisation requirements.
Buying and rollout advice
Before choosing software for MRA Small Taxpayer Deadline, ask for a workflow demonstration using your own type of transaction, not only sample data. The test should include the normal case, a correction, a credit note or refund where relevant, a report export, and the user permissions your team will actually use. This quickly shows whether the system is ready for daily work or only looks good in a short demo.
Also check support and onboarding. For Mauritius businesses, local context matters: VAT treatment, MRA fiscalisation, offline behaviour, document wording, accountant expectations, and staff training can all affect the success of the rollout. A good implementation should make these details clear before go-live.
Why Codeblix is a strong fit
Codeblix is built around the Mauritius compliance environment and the practical needs of small and medium businesses. The platform is designed to keep invoicing, POS, inventory, accounting, reports, and customer records connected, so owners can reduce manual reconciliation and operate with cleaner data.
The best result is a system your staff can use every day without workarounds. That means clear screens, reliable records, exportable reports, controlled access, and a support team that understands the local EBS requirements.

FAQ
Do I need an MRA-listed EBS if my turnover is below MUR 3M?
Not necessarily. MUR 3M is the general taxable-supplies threshold, but prescribed activities can require VAT registration regardless of turnover. Confirm the business category and current e-invoicing requirement with MRA.
How long does setup take?
With Codeblix eInvoicing, setup is typically 1-3 business days for a small business. Many customers issue their first MRA-fiscalised invoice on day one.
Can I use Codeblix if I am a sole trader?
Yes. The Starter plan is built for sole traders and small businesses. It includes invoicing, basic inventory, and customer management.
What if I am not VAT-registered yet?
Confirm whether the business is VAT-registered, falls within a prescribed registration category, and is in an applicable MRA e-invoicing phase. Turnover alone is not the only test.
