[Nigeria Compliance Via DigiTax](https://github.com/navariltd/Nigeria-Compliance-Via-DigiTax) is an integration application that connects ERPNext with the Nigeria Revenue Service (NRS) system. By connecting your Frappe/ERPNext instance directly to the [DigiTax Nigeria API](https://ng.docs.digitax.tech/docs/getting-started), this app ensures your business maintains full NRS compliance while eliminating manual data entry and synchronization errors.
