- From January 1, 2026, all VAT-registered businesses established in Belgium must issue and receive structured e-invoices for domestic B2B transactions.
- E-invoices must meet European standards (Peppol/EN 16931).
- The mandate applies only to transactions where both parties are established in Belgium; non-established entities with a Belgian VAT number are excluded.
- If the recipient cannot receive a structured e-invoice for technical reasons, a paper or PDF invoice is temporarily allowed.
