Frequently asked questions
Which Sage X3 version is needed?
Version 12, patch 25 or later.
Is the localisation certified in Cabo Verde?
Cabo Verde has no software certification. What the DNRE requires is that documents reach the e-Fatura platform, and Sage X3 Local Cabo Verde sends them from Sage X3 itself.
Licence or subscription?
Both include legal updates. The licence is paid once, with annual maintenance; the subscription is paid every year. In the proposal we show both.
Who must use e-invoicing in Cabo Verde?
It was phased in between 2021 and 2022: importers, large and medium-sized taxpayers and, since 2 June 2022, REMPE taxpayers and category B taxpayers with formal accounts.
We are a Sage X3 partner outside Portugal. Can we use the localisation?
Yes. We already work with partners from other countries: we license the localisation and give your team second-line support, without contacting your client directly.
