With Saudi Arabia aiming to attract over 7,000 global companies to establish their regional headquarters (HQs) in Jeddah, Saudisoft is supporting this initiative by offering a comprehensive range of services, including localisation services, software solutions, hardware provision, regulatory compliance, and technology support.

Saudi Arabia has made significant progress in its socio-economic reform agenda halfway through Vision 2030, an initiative by Crown Prince and Prime Minister Mohammed bin Salman that includes building megacities and attracting foreign investment under the HQs program.

While the move underscores Saudi Arabia’s ambition to become the business hub of the GCC region, relocating HQs presents foreign companies with challenges, such as adapting to a new business environment.

Nevertheless, Saudisoft is supporting Vision 2030 by enabling global companies to establish in Riyadh and seamlessly adapt to the local business environment.

Founded in 1983, Saudisoft has established itself as a leader in both the HW/SW solutions and the language technology /localisation industry in the Middle East region.

Driven by its reputation for excellence and robust global presence, the company is well-positioned to support businesses and multinational companies in overcoming market challenges such as taxes, distribution and exporting regulations, language barriers, and seamless communication across diverse markets.

Driving Vision 2030

The economy is becoming more digital, and business enterprises face mounting pressure to adapt to new regulations and operational standards.

Saudisoft serves a wide range of industries, including information technology, healthcare, finance, legal, manufacturing, retail, e-commerce, and entertainment. Its industry-specific expertise ensures that clients receive tailored solutions that address their unique challenges and requirements.

GreenTax E-Invoicing Solution 

Saudi Arabia’s e-invoicing industry is rapidly evolving, driven by government initiatives, advancements in technology and the push for greater efficiency and transparency in business transactions.

The Zakat, Tax and Customs Authority (ZATCA) unveiled its 16th wave of Phase 2 E-invoicing integration in April 2025. The authorities are urging taxpayers in the country with a taxable turnover exceeding SAR 3M during 2022 or 2023 to comply with the Phase 2 requirements.

Saudisoft’s GreenTax e-invoicing solution is significantly impacting taxation processes in Saudi Arabia by streamlining and modernising invoice management and reporting. GreenTax e-invoicing solution was launched in 2022 to streamline tax compliance for businesses while ensuring adherence to the latest regulatory requirements set by the ZATCA.

Saudisoft started 2023 on a stronger footing. Building on the success of GreenTax, the company diversified its software product offerings further, focusing on performance optimisation.

The e-invoicing solution reduces the need for paper by digitising the invoicing process, contributing to environmental sustainability. At the same time, its comprehensive reporting and analytics features enable businesses to gain insights into their invoicing activities.

Saudisoft strongly emphasises data security. Its e-invoicing solution employs advanced encryption and security protocols to protect sensitive financial information, ensuring that all transactions are secure and compliant with data protection standards.

GreenAccess Mobile Solution

Businesses need to work on managing secure access to their facilities and digital resources, as traditional access methods are deemed cumbersome and vulnerable to security breaches.

For decades, corporates have struggled with balancing the need for secure access control systems against the demands for cost-effective solutions.

The solution allows users to access facilities and digital resources using their mobile devices, thereby eliminating the need for physical access cards and reducing administrative overhead for users.
