Considerations for the UK E‑Invoicing Mandate Roadmap – Discussion Paper (P2P Network / UKeLab)

 

• The paper outlines key design and policy considerations for the UK’s move towards mandatory B2B e‑invoicing from 2026–2029, emphasising a co‑creation approach between government and industry and the need for a clear, staged implementation roadmap aligned with the UK Budget process. [linkedin.com]
• It favours a decentralised “four‑corner” model supported by interoperable service providers and a core interoperability network, drawing on international best practices; near‑real‑time reporting is explored but not expected to be part of the 2029 mandate. [linkedin.com]
• Strong emphasis is placed on stakeholder engagement, communication, and business adoption, including SME readiness, reuse of existing digital infrastructure (e.g. MTD learnings), clear standards, and practical guidance to ensure benefits are understood and realised across the economy.
