Main E-invoicing Components in Belgium

• Mercurius Platform Overview: The Mercurius Platform is Belgium’s centralized electronic invoicing system that facilitates invoice transmission, ensures compatibility with PEPPOL standards, offers manual upload options, provides real-time status updates, and converts invoice data into accessible formats for businesses and government entities.
• PEPPOL Framework Benefits: PEPPOL supports interoperable e-invoicing by standardizing invoice formats, ensuring certified network access, and maintaining security and compliance. It enables efficient, cross-border invoicing while facilitating regulatory compliance and operational efficiency for businesses in Belgium.
• Implementation Steps and Advantages: To implement PEPPOL and Mercurius, businesses should evaluate existing software, register for a unique identifier, integrate accounting systems, ensure compliance with standards, and train employees. This transition to mandatory electronic invoicing enhances transparency, efficiency, and adherence to tax laws in Belgium.
