ClearTax, a global tax compliance and e-invoicing technology company, has announced a partnership with Odoo, one of the world’s leading open-source business management platforms, to make tax compliance and e-invoicing simpler and more accessible for businesses across the Gulf region.
As part of the partnership, Odoo will develop a native integration with ClearTax for customers in the UAE & GCC. The integration will allow businesses using Odoo to manage indirect tax compliance, invoicing and evolving regulatory requirements directly within their existing ERP workflows.
The partnership comes as governments across the region accelerate the digitisation of tax administration and introduce new e-invoicing frameworks. For businesses, particularly small and medium-sized enterprises, this is creating a growing need for technology that can reduce manual processes, improve accuracy and keep pace with changing regulations.
Through the native connector, Odoo customers will be able to access ClearTax’s compliance capabilities through a simplified, self-service onboarding journey. By embedding compliance into the software businesses already use, the integration is expected to reduce the time, effort and operational complexity involved in implementing compliant tax and invoicing processes.
The partnership is expected to initially benefit an estimated 4,000 to 5,000 businesses using Odoo across the UAE and Oman. It will also extend access to Odoo customers in the GCC. ClearTax and Odoo intend to explore opportunities to expand the partnership to other international markets over time.
“Businesses do not want tax compliance to operate as a separate and disconnected process. They expect it to be built into the systems they already use to manage their operations,” said Archit Gupta, Founder and CEO, ClearTax. “Our partnership with Odoo responds directly to that need. By bringing ClearTax’s compliance infrastructure into the Odoo ecosystem, we are making it easier for businesses across the region to manage regulatory change while remaining focused on growth.”
Pavitra Singh, Managing Director at Odoo Middle East, said: “The partnership between Odoo and ClearTax will allow Odoo customers to seamlessly stay compliant with the ever-evolving e-invoicing landscape across the region. At Odoo, our priority has always been to provide fully localized solutions that meet the needs of each market we operate in, and our partnership with ClearTax is a step in that direction.”
Odoo has built a strong presence among small and medium-sized businesses through its integrated suite of applications across accounting, finance, sales, inventory, manufacturing, human resources, customer relationship management and e-commerce.
ClearTax supports more than 5,000 enterprises globally and processes over one billion e-invoices annually. Its tax compliance and e-invoicing platform helps businesses integrate regulatory compliance into their existing ERP and finance systems through automation, intelligent workflows and API-led integrations.
By combining Odoo’s business management platform with ClearTax’s compliance technology and regional expertise, the partnership aims to make tax compliance a more seamless part of everyday business operations for companies across the Gulf.
