Burkina Faso introduced 10% VAT on electronic services from Jan 2025

3 March 2025

As of 1 January 2025, Burkina Faso has introduced VAT on digital services sold to consumers.

Previously, foreign businesses providing digital services to consumers in Burkina Faso were not required to charge VAT. However, to remove the unfair advantage that this gave non-resident companies over resident providers, the Government of Burkina Faso introduced VAT at 10% on these transactions.

Non-resident digital service providers must register for VAT through a local Fiscal Representative to do this.
