What is Standard Audit File-Tax (SAF-T)?
SAF-T is a standard format for the exchange of accounting data. The standard is the result of a joint development collaboration between the business communicty, the accounting sector and the Norwegian Tax Administration, based on a recommendation by the OECD. The standard specifies what accounting data is to be exchanged, and also the structure of the data.
Scope:
The SAF-T Financial is limited to the general ledger, the accounts payable and receivable transactions including all applicable master data.
Compliance:
It is not a requirement that SAF-T reporting must be an integrated part of the existing system solutions. It is possible to prepare reports on SAF-T-format with your own tools.
From 2020, the requirement is to provide financial information in the SAF-T-format applies upon request by the Tax Authorities. The Company is compliant if it is able to produce financial information in SAF-T format within reasonable time after being requested to do so by the Tax Authorities.
