- Transition to Mandatory E-Invoicing: New Zealand is transitioning to mandatory electronic invoicing, moving from a voluntary initiative to a government-driven standard anchored in the global Peppol Network. The first milestone requires all central public agencies to receive e-invoices, with expanded obligations set to take effect by January 1, 2026.
- Legal and Technical Framework: The Ministry of Business, Innovation and Employment (MBIE) is driving the adoption of e-invoicing, having established the PINT A-NZ Billing specification to align with international standards while addressing local needs. This includes requirements for agencies that process over 2,000 domestic invoices annually to send and receive e-invoices and adhere to faster payment obligations.
- Preparation for Suppliers: Businesses must prepare for the upcoming mandates by ensuring their systems can generate and send e-invoices in the A-NZ format.
