Mainland Tanzania VAT & TIN workflows

TZS-native invoicing and reporting

Works on phone and desktop

Multi-shop from day one

The problem

Compliance anxiety, spread across five tools

Deadlines live in someone's memory

VAT periods, TIN renewals, filing windows — tracked in a notebook or a WhatsApp reminder, if at all.

Records are scattered

Invoices in one app, stock in a notebook, client numbers in someone's phone. Nothing reconciles.

Multiple shops, one spreadsheet

A second location means a shared file two people edit — with no record of who moved what, or where a sale happened.

Compliance, front and center

From due date to done — with evidence attached

Every VAT period and filing window becomes a checklist item on your dashboard, with the supporting documents attached before the deadline — not after.

  • Rates and deadlines never hardcoded in the UI
  • Evidence attached per obligation
  • Reminders before, not after, the due date

FAQ

Your questions, answered

Does this help with filing, or just tracking deadlines?

Biashara OS tells you what's due and helps you assemble the evidence — it doesn't file returns on your behalf. Think of it as the checklist and paper trail your accountant needs, always up to date.

Is this only for Mainland Tanzania?

The tax obligation engine currently covers Mainland VAT and TIN workflows. Zanzibar-specific rules are on the roadmap.

Can I run more than one shop?

Yes. Every plan supports at least one branch, and Business or Pro scale to multiple shops with branch-scoped stock, invoices, and dashboards.

What happens to my data if I cancel?

You can export your invoices, clients, and records at any time. We never hold your data hostage to force an upgrade.

How long is the free trial?

14 days on the Business plan, no card required to start.
