What eTIMS Billing Software does for a veterinary clinic
eTIMS billing files a compliant tax invoice with KRA on every sale, with no manual entry. For a veterinary clinic, the value shows up exactly where the work is hardest.
A vet clinic stocks medicines with expiry dates, vaccines that expire quickly, and surgical supplies, requiring precise date-level tracking. Vet margins come from consultation fees and medicine/vaccine markup, with farm visits adding travel costs.
Controlled animal medicines require government compliance records, and large farm sales need compliant invoices. Veira handles that as part of the same sale, so compliance is not a separate evening job.
Veterinary Clinics run differently, and the software should too
A generic till misses the details that decide whether a veterinary clinic makes money. These are the ones that matter:
- 1
The daily reality

- 2
Where the margin leaks
Vaccine expiry dates and batch tracking. eTIMS Billing Software built for a veterinary clinic turns that into a number you can act on, and you also queue invoices offline and submit when reconnected.
- 3
What slows the counter

- 4
What buyers expect
Drug inventory with controlled substances. eTIMS Billing Software built for a veterinary clinic turns that into a number you can act on, and you also give registered buyers the invoice they need to claim input VAT.
