- Belgium’s mandatory B2B e-invoicing starts January 1, 2026, with a three-month grace period for compliance.
- No sanctions will be imposed during the grace period if businesses can prove timely and reasonable efforts to comply and issues are due to technical limitations.
- Businesses must still meet invoicing obligations using alternative methods if technical issues prevent e-invoicing.
- The grace period is not a general postponement; the original deadline remains, and each case will be evaluated individually.
