Nigeria’s transition toward a more digitally driven tax system is creating a new operational reality for businesses, and Vi-M Professional Solutions Limited is positioning itself at the centre of that transformation.
The company has secured dual accreditation as a System Integrator and Access Point Provider under Nigeria’s National e-Invoicing and Electronic Fiscal System regime, giving it a recognised role in helping businesses connect with the country’s emerging electronic tax infrastructure.
Vi-M has also unveiled eNvoice.ng, a digital platform built to simplify electronic invoicing and tax compliance for businesses operating at different levels of technological capacity.
The platform arrives as the Nigeria Revenue Service begins active compliance monitoring of large taxpayers across the country. Under the new NRS directives, affected organisations are required to complete integration, validation and testing before moving to live transmission of invoices through the government platform. They must also ensure that incoming supplier invoices contain valid Invoice Reference Numbers.
Companies must now ensure that their internal systems, accounting processes and invoicing operations can work with the regulatory framework.
Vi-M says eNvoice.ng was developed to address that challenge without forcing every business into the same technology model.
Large companies operating sophisticated Enterprise Resource Planning systems can use the platform, while businesses relying on accounting applications such as QuickBooks or NetSuite can also be accommodated.
The platform equally targets businesses that have yet to adopt formal accounting software. Through a lightweight workspace, such companies can create invoices, classify taxes using HS and ISIC codes, manage credit notes and transmit invoices directly to the regulatory platform without undertaking a complete ERP overhaul.
That broad usability, according to Vi-M, is central to making digital tax compliance more accessible across Nigeria's business landscape.
The company's Founder and Chief Executive Officer, Vivian Chigozie-Nmonwu, described the dual accreditation as an important milestone and a validation of Vi-M's work across taxation, technology, regulatory compliance and enterprise systems.
“This dual accreditation is a significant milestone for Vi-M and a strong validation of our work at the intersection of tax, technology, regulatory compliance, and enterprise systems,” Chigozie-Nmonwu stated.
She said eNvoice.ng was developed to make compliance “practical, secure, and accessible for businesses,” whether they operate complex digital systems or require a simpler workspace for their invoicing needs.
With NRS compliance monitoring already underway, she stressed the need for businesses to establish that their systems can actually meet the requirements rather than simply declare themselves prepared.
“With NRS compliance monitoring now underway, businesses need to move beyond general readiness discussions and confirm their actual onboarding, integration, validation, and transmission capability,” she said.
Chigozie-Nmonwu added that Vi-M's goal is to support businesses and implementation partners with technology that brings together compliance, usability and technical flexibility.
The company is also designing beyond Nigeria's immediate requirements. eNvoice.ng uses a modular architecture that prepares the platform for future international standards, including PEPPOL, potentially giving Nigerian businesses a stronger foundation as cross-border digital invoicing requirements evolve.
The development comes at a time when technology is becoming an increasingly important part of how Nigeria administers taxation and how businesses demonstrate compliance.
For Nigerian companies, the emerging e-invoicing regime is therefore creating a new link between everyday commercial transactions and the country's digital tax infrastructure. Vi-M's accreditation and eNvoice.ng platform add another piece to that growing ecosystem, offering businesses a route into the system without making technological complexity a prerequisite for compliance.
