What is XML?

According to Saudi Arabia's Detailed Guidelines for E-Invoicing, electronic invoices must be created and saved in the appropriate format, such as either XML or PDF/A3 with embedded XML. The XML format has to conform to the ZATCA's technical requirements, which include using certain tags and elements.

XML stands for an extensible markup language. It is a way to present information in a structured and machine-readable format. The ZATCA e-invoice format is based on XML and several other XML-based standards. It defines a set of rules for encoding documents in both human-readable and machine-readable formats.

 The XML standard is a flexible way to create information formats and electronically share structured data via the public internet and corporate networks.
