- On 13 February 2026, CEN approved updates to the EU e-invoicing standard EN 16931-1.
- The update follows an October 2025 agreement to modernize e-invoicing beyond B2G, aligning with VAT in the Digital Age reforms.
- New fields have been added to adapt the standard for B2B and 2030 Digital Reporting Requirements.
