The Kenya Revenue Authority (KRA) electronic Tax Invoice Management System (eTIMS) has transformed how retail and service businesses issue tax invoices in Kenya.

### What is eTIMS?
eTIMS is an electronic tax invoicing solution designed to standardize tax compliance, prevent fraudulent billing, and transmit real-time sales data to KRA.

### Key Integration Options for Businesses:
1. **Software POS Integration**: Direct API connections between your point-of-sale system (like Kweli POS) and KRA servers.
2. **Dedicated OSCU Hardware**: Physical electronic tax register devices suitable for single-till shops and VAT operations.
3. **ERP API Gateway**: Custom middleware connecting enterprise systems (SAP, Oracle, QuickBooks) directly to KRA's eTIMS portal.

Horizonshub Technologies provides complete end-to-end setup, hardware supply, and certified staff training to ensure your operations remain 100% tax compliant.
