Frequently asked questions

MRA e-invoicing (the Electronic Billing System, or EBS) is a Mauritius Revenue Authority mandate requiring every VAT-registered business to issue invoices through MRA-listed software. Each invoice is assigned an Invoice Reference Number (IRN), a QR code, and a cryptographic hash that chains it to the previous invoice so records cannot be silently altered.

For the full end-to-end workflow - counters, hash chaining, QR codes and transmission - see our MRA e-invoicing guide. It walks through each step your software (and your staff) must perform to stay compliant.

Yes. Codeblix Ltd is registered with the MRA as EBS Solution Provider SN 95 (BRN C24214425) and was officially listed in the June 2026 provider directory after a successful live demonstration covering invoice generation, fiscalisation, hash-chain verification and transaction reporting.

You can verify us alongside the other certified providers on the official EBS providers list, and read the full company background on our about page.

Yes. Codeblix has an offline mode that lets you keep issuing invoices when your internet drops or the MRA service is temporarily unavailable. Each invoice is stored locally with a valid invoice counter and previous-note hash, then automatically transmits to MRA and receives its IRN and QR code the moment connectivity returns.

This matters most at the retail counter - see how it fits into a downtime-proof checkout in our POS module.

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.

See the automated self-onboarding plan or all EBS pricing.

Codeblix supports standard ESC/POS thermal receipt printers (Epson, Star, Bixolon and similar) as well as A4 inkjet and laser printers. Test the exact printer, configured fiscal-invoice fields, QR code and IRN output before production use.

Our POS module is built specifically for retail counters, restaurants and pharmacies, with hardware profiles that auto-configure common Mauritian printer models out of the box.

Yes. You can invite your accountant or bookkeeper with controlled read/write access at no extra cost. They can review invoices, run VAT returns, generate sales reports and issue credit notes without seeing payroll or banking details - permissions are granular per user.

This pairs naturally with our accounting module and CRM, so your whole finance team works from one source of truth instead of juggling spreadsheets across tools.

Yes. You can invoice in USD, EUR, GBP, MUR and other major currencies, while VAT and totals are automatically converted to MUR for MRA submission as the EBS specification requires. Exchange rates are configurable per invoice or pulled from a daily rate.

Product pricing and stock in the inventory module can also be held in any currency, and multi-currency is included on every plan - not gated to a higher tier.

Credit notes (and debit notes) are fully supported as MRA document types in their own right. Each gets its own invoice counter, QR code and IRN, and correctly references the original invoice so the audit chain stays intact for MRA verification.

Combined with staff adjustments in our payroll module, refunds and reversals remain fully auditable and hash-chain compliant across the whole business.
