- Australia uses the Peppol network for e-invoicing with a phased, mostly voluntary approach.
- E-invoicing is mandatory for B2G transactions with federal agencies since 1 July 2022; B2B adoption is encouraged but not compulsory.
- Federal agencies must process at least 30% of invoices via e-invoicing by 1 July 2026 and be able to send e-invoices automatically by December 2026.
- The Australian Taxation Office oversees the Peppol network but does not handle individual invoices; e-invoices must be stored for five years.
- Penalties apply for B2G non-compliance, but there are no specific fines for B2B non-use; GST is reported periodically, not in real time.
