Bilingual bookkeeping and VAT filing for small trading businesses and their accountants in Saudi Arabia
Small trading businesses in Riyadh and Jeddah keep paper invoices and phone photos of receipts, half in Arabic and half in English. Each quarter their accountant spends two to three days retyping them before the VAT return, and invoices that miss the new electronic invoicing format rules lead to penalties of thousands of riyals per filing.
Tadqeeq Ledger reads invoices and receipts sent by photo, email or chat in either language, extracts VAT numbers, line items and tax amounts, and matches them to bank transactions. It flags invoices that fail e-invoicing format checks weeks before the deadline, then drafts the quarterly VAT return for the accountant to review and submit.
Accounting firms and bookkeepers serving Saudi Arabia's estimated 1.3 million small and medium businesses, starting with trading and wholesale firms where invoice volume per business is highest.

Yousef Al-MutairiHead of Accounting ProductSelling through accounting firms instead of chasing individual shop owners makes sense, since one firm brings 20 to 40 businesses at once. Reem has run a bookkeeping practice herself and the product shows it, down to the box numbers on the VAT return. Early, but the waitlist is real.
The invoice inbox and VAT draft are genuinely useful, and the QR-code check is the kind of detail accountants care about. But bank statements still have to be exported and uploaded as CSV files, which undercuts the time savings for firms with many clients. Faded thermal receipts also needed manual correction in the demo.
My agency keeps the books for eleven trading clients in Jeddah, and mixed Arabic and English invoices with handwritten totals used to eat our quarter-end. Tadqeeq's extraction held up on the messiest samples we sent, and duplicate detection across suppliers caught two invoices we had already paid. Accuracy is reported as a single overall figure, so we cannot yet tell which document types need a second look.
