- The European Committee for Standardization (CEN) has approved a revision of EN 16931-1, the core semantic standard for e-invoicing in the EU.
- The revision aligns the standard with upcoming legislation, including VAT in the Digital Age (ViDA).
- Key implementation dates range from October 2025 to May 2026 for approval, announcement, publication, and withdrawal of conflicting standards.
- The update aims to create a ViDA-ready, B2B and CTC-capable e-invoicing framework, enhancing interoperability, validation, and national adaptations.
