- From 1 January 2027, all New Zealand government agencies will require large domestic suppliers (with revenue over NZ$33 million in the past two years) to issue e-invoices for domestic transactions.
- The e-invoicing requirement applies only to domestic suppliers and transactions in New Zealand dollars; international suppliers and cross-border transactions in foreign currencies are exempt.
- While not a legal mandate, suppliers unable to send e-invoices may be excluded from government contracts.
- From 1 January 2026, government agencies must pay 95% of domestic trade e-invoices within five business days.
- Large suppliers should prepare now to ensure e-invoice readiness and maintain eligibility for government contracts.
