A ZATCA e-invoice QR code is a short Base64 text made of numbered fields: 1 the seller's name, 2 their VAT number, 3 the invoice date and time, 4 the total including VAT, and 5 the VAT total. Those five are the phase-1 QR. Under phase 2, invoices also carry the invoice's hash (6), its digital signature (7) and the public key (8) — produced with the seller's own certificate from ZATCA — and simplified invoices add the certificate's signature (9).

Questions

Is a QR from this tool enough for phase 2?

No. Phase 2 needs fields 6–8, which only the seller's own ZATCA-issued certificate can produce, and the invoice must be cleared or reported to ZATCA. This tool makes the phase-1 QR and reads either kind.

Is the QR this tool makes the same as Dopave's invoices?

Yes — for the same five fields the text is byte for byte what Dopave writes on a Saudi invoice; our tests check that. A connected Dopave workspace then adds the signed phase-2 fields.
