- The Netherlands is moving toward mandatory e-invoicing and digital reporting for all domestic and cross-border B2B transactions, using the Peppol network, with a phased rollout from 2030 to 2032.
- Draft legislation is expected for public consultation in Q4 2026, with a final government position to be announced by summer 2026.
- This marks a significant policy shift from the Netherlands’ previous market-driven approach to a more regulated, structured invoicing system.
- The advisory report recommends extending e-invoicing to all domestic B2B transactions (ViDA-B), based on stakeholder input, EU country comparisons, and cost-benefit analysis.
- The move aligns with the EU’s ViDA directive, which requires digital reporting for intra-Community B2B transactions by July 2030, but allows member states to include domestic transactions as well.
