- The European Commission has launched a consultation to revise EU e-invoicing rules, aiming for greater harmonisation and reduced fragmentation.
- The revision seeks to address inconsistencies in adoption, formats, and interoperability across member states, which currently create barriers for cross-border business.
- Key goals include making harmonised e-invoicing the default, ensuring interoperability, and aligning with the VAT in the Digital Age (ViDA) initiative.
- Potential measures include mandatory EU e-invoicing standards, expanding rule scope, and establishing common invoice transmission methods.
- Stakeholder feedback is open until June 10, with legislative proposals expected in Q4 2026, aiming to simplify compliance and reduce administrative burdens for businesses.
