System Integrator: Clarifications Needed.

io7

Our internal development team will be handling the system integration and access point provisioning end-to-end. Please we need clarification on the following:

Is our company required to register as a System Integrator with the FIRS, if yes, please share requirements.
Is there a certification roadmap, how do we get approval from FIRS to go live?
We need access to MBS test environment, how do we go about this please?

I would appreciate feedback the questions above.

Thank you.

Dear @SysAdmin,

Please find our response to your questions below:

Is our company required to register as a System Integrator with the FIRS? If yes, please share requirements.: No, you do not need to register as a system integrator. Please enable your entity for e-Invoicing, and use the credentials provided for your SI implementation
Is there a certification roadmap, how do we get approval from FIRS to go live? Not required
We need access to the MBS test environment, how do we go about this please? Please enable your entity for e-Invoicing to access the test environment.

Kindly note that you will need to connect to an Access Point Provider (APP) to complete the end-to-end process.

SysAdmin

We have been enabled for e-invoicing and have our credentials on hand.

Please share information/documentation on how to achieve SI implementation.

Can you share information/documentation on how to connect to the test environment? Is it a URL under the e-invoicing portal?

APP information is noted.

Thank you.

SysAdmin How do i proceed to enable our entity for e-invoicing

SysAdmin

Good to know that you have your credentials.

Information on SI implementation can be found here. https://einvoice.firs.gov.ng/docs/

Your taxpayers' portal has both test mode and production with 2 different key sets. Kindly use the credentials on the test mode interface; this serves as your test environment.

Thank you for the feedback @SysAdmin .

I would like to ask: are there any legal entities/implications to be considered on the FIRS side?

SysAdmin

io7 Please provide further clarity on your question.

Dear @SysAdmin
We are unable to sign into our taxpromax account, reset password or create a new account.
Please assist.

SysAdmin

Dear @gigasec,

Please reach out to the Taxpro Max Team

gigasec

SysAdmin We have reached out and completed our System Integrator registration.

We are having error 403 upon testing Authentication API - user forbidden.

Please assist.

SysAdmin

Dear gigasec,

The taxpayer's authentication endpoint is exclusive to the Access Point Provider. Please read about this subject in the community. It has been explained from different perspectives.

gigasec

SysAdmin Please advise how we can register as an Access Point Provider?

SysAdmin

Dear gigasec and Satish,

Kindly note that portal (https://mbs.gov.ng/) is managed by NITDA. We will call their attention to this and revert.

Thank you.

Satish

The registration as APP has been disabled. It now only shows "SI" registration. Pl let know when the registration segment for APPs will be enabled

Satish

@"SysAdmin"

Pl let know if there is any update on the APP registration. The option to register APP is still not visible on mbs.gov.ng

SysAdmin

Satish, the APP application process is currently undergoing regulatory refinement. We will share official updates as soon as they become available.
