What Foriba does

Foriba, founded in 1999 and headquartered in Maltepe, Turkey, is a provider of cloud-based electronic tax document and regulatory compliance solutions operating today as Sovos Turkey within the broader Sovos Compliance, LLC group. The company's core product portfolio centers on Turkish e-document compliance — e-Fatura (electronic invoice), e-Arşiv Fatura (electronic archive invoice), e-İrsaliye (electronic despatch note), and e-Defter (electronic ledger) — supplemented by ancillary modules (e-Mutabakat reconciliation, e-Müstahsil, e-Serbest Meslek Makbuzu receipts) and SAP-integrated e-document solutions. Beyond Turkish mandates, Foriba delivers VAT Determination (KDV Belirleme), Continuous Transaction Controls (CTCs), and managed services for VAT and Insurance Premium Tax via the Compliance Cloud platform, supporting compliance across more than 19,000 tax jurisdictions in 70+ countries with a bench of nearly 100 regulatory specialists.

The underlying technology is a cloud-native compliance platform with pre-built integrations into SAP, Oracle NetSuite (Gold Partner), Salesforce Commerce Cloud, and Magento, embedding regulatory workflows directly into customers' ERP and commerce systems. Foriba goes to market via an enterprise field sales motion targeting large multinationals in regulated industries — Retail, Manufacturing, Financial Services, Insurance, Digital Services, and New Economies — and monetizes through a combination of annual subscription licenses and usage-based kontör (credit) packages billed annually, with named enterprise customers including The Home Depot, Nationwide, CVS Health, and Philips. The entity rebranded from Digital Planet to Sovos Turkey and now operates within the Sovos global footprint spanning 14+ staffed countries.
