- Australia proposed the Business E-invoicing Right (BER) initiative in 2022

- The Australian Treasury plans to legislate this initiative
- The initiative will be introduced in a phased approach over three years
- In the first year, companies can require their large suppliers to provide Peppol e-invoices
- In the second year, companies can require their medium-sized suppliers to provide Peppol e-invoices
- In the third year, companies can require all their suppliers to provide Peppol e-invoices
- The implementation of the first phase of BER has been postponed and no clear timelines are available yet.
