FRCS Accreditation

EMS files that pass FRCS validation, every time.

TaviPay's payroll engine implements FRCA Payroll Specification v1.4 in full — header, details and footer records pre-validated before you click Send.

Why FRCS accreditation matters

FRCA's Payroll Specification v1.4 (Final, 24 December 2014) defines the technical interface every Fijian employer, tax agent and payroll bureau must use to submit Employer Monthly Schedule (EMS) files. The spec has zero tolerance for malformed records — a single bad line and the whole file is rejected.

Most legacy payroll systems handle this by hand-editing the output. TaviPay generates a fully-validated file straight from the engine, sends it to payeems@frca.org.fj from inside the app, and files the receipt on the audit log.

When FRCA updates the spec, we ship the change to every customer at once — no patches to install, no version mismatches across your team.

EMS file structure

Three records per file

HHeader — employer details, period
