Fiscal localizations

Fiscal localizations are country-specific modules that allow you to be compliant with a country’s fiscal requirements. Most of these modules are related to the Accounting or Payroll app, but they can also be necessary for other apps such as Point of Sale, eCommerce, etc., depending on a country’s fiscal requirements.

Configuration

Odoo should automatically install the required fiscal localization modules based on the company’s country when the related app is installed. Refer to the list of countries to view the currently supported countries and access their specific documentation.

Note

Each company in a multi-company environment can use different fiscal localization modules.

Accounting

Verify the right package of modules is installed by going to Accounting ‣ Configuration ‣ Settings and checking the Package field under the Fiscal Localization section. Select another one if necessary.

Warning

Selecting another package is only possible if no entry has been posted.

These packages require fine-tuning the chart of accounts, activating the taxes to be used, configuring the country-specific statements and certifications, and sometimes more.

Payroll

Localization settings can be accessed by going to Payroll ‣ Configuration ‣ Settings and searching for the country’s Localization section.

List of countries

Fiscal localization modules are available for the countries listed below.

Note

New countries are frequently added to this list and Odoo keeps expanding and improving existing localizations and the related documentation.
