- The UK government will mandate B2B and B2G eInvoicing from April 1, 2029, as announced in the 2025 Budget.
- The preferred model is a decentralised 4-corner system, compatible with international standards like Peppol and the EU ViDA initiative.
- A public consultation was held in early 2025 to gather feedback on standardisation, adoption, and implementation details.
- The implementation roadmap includes voluntary eInvoicing now, stakeholder collaboration in 2026, pilot phases in 2027-2028, and full rollout in 2029.
- The government may consider adding eReporting to HMRC after eInvoicing is established, and is open to a phased approach based on industry feedback.
