SAFT reporting explained

Updated this week

What is SAFT?

SAFT is a digital file format used to submit accounting data to tax authorities. It is designed to facilitate audits by providing a clear and consistent method for exchanging financial information. The format includes details about transactions, invoices, and other accounting records, making it easier for tax authorities to verify the accuracy of a business's financial statements.

Who is SAFT obligatory for?

SAFT reporting is obligatory for businesses operating in countries that have adopted this standard, such as Portugal and Poland. If your business is registered in one of these countries, you are required to submit your accounting data in the SAFT format to the relevant tax authorities.
