# Khata in Yemen

Where the power and the network both come and go, the till that matters is the one that has already finished the sale by the time either of them returns.

## Facts
- Shops using Khata: 1 shop (counted 2026-09-01)
- Currency: YER (﷼)
- Dial code: +967
- Price: free on mobile

## The 22 governorates
‘Adan, 'Amran, Abyan, Ad Dali', Al Bayda', Al Hudaydah, Al Jawf, Al Mahrah, Al Mahwit, Dhamar, Hadhramaut, Hajjah, Ibb, Lahij, Ma'rib, Raymah, Sa'dah, Sanʿaʾ, Sanʿaʾ Governorate, Shabwah, Socotra, Ta'izz

## What Khata does not do in Yemen
- **The sales tax is not renamed for your country** — A business record carries a registration type of PAN, VAT or GST and nothing else. Khata will not print TRN, BIN, NTN or your local equivalent on a bill, and it does not know your country's rates.
- **There is no compliance calendar outside India and Nepal** — Filing reminders exist for those two only. Everywhere else the app tracks your sales and stock and leaves the filing dates to you.
- **No financial-year or week-start setting** — Reports are run by picking dates. Nothing defaults to your tax year or opens the week on your local first day, because neither is stored.
- **One business is one country** — The country chosen at signup sets the currency for everything that business does. A group trading across two countries needs one business per country.

## Questions

**Does Khata work in Yemen?**

Yes. Choosing Yemen at signup sets the business to YER (﷼) and validates phone numbers against the +967 format, so bills, reports and payment reminders are all in your own currency from the first sale. 1 shop in Yemen is on it as of 2026-09-01.

**What currency will my bills be in?**

YER, shown as ﷼. It is set from the country you pick and is not a default we fell back to — the app resolves a currency for every country in the world, which is why a shop in Yemen is not billing in Indian rupees.

**Is it free in Yemen?**

The mobile app is free everywhere, including Yemen. There is no card, no trial period and nothing to cancel. The web dashboard is a separate, paid product that our team grants by hand.

**Does Khata handle Yemen's sales tax?**

Not as a named local tax. A business record carries a registration type of PAN, VAT or GST and a registration number, and you can set a tax rate per line on a bill — but Khata does not know Yemen's rates, will not print a local registration format on an invoice, and has no filing calendar outside India and Nepal.

**Will it work when the shop has no internet?**

Yes, and that is the point of it. A bill is completed on the phone and the server is told afterwards, so the sale finishes at the counter whether or not there is a signal. Nothing about that behaviour is different in Yemen.

**Can one account cover Yemen and another country?**

No. The country picked at signup fixes the currency for that whole business, so a group trading in Yemen and elsewhere needs one business per country. Phone numbers are checked against +967 with 4 to 12 digits after the code.
