The Belgian government approved a draft royal decree to implement the electronic invoice for all the public administrations in the country. The goal of the decree is to expand the obligation to issue electronic invoices to all the suppliers of public institutions of the country. The obligation will be expanded gradually based on the size of public contracts.
This obligation already exists for suppliers of the centralized entities of multiple regions (Brussels, Flanders, Wallonia). It will now be extended to the suppliers of public entities in all the regions.
Belgium becomes another country in Europe like Italy and France that have decided to extend the mandatory use of the electronic invoice to public administration suppliers as mandated by European Directive 2014/55.
