- The Netherlands is preparing a ViDA-aligned e-invoicing and digital reporting system, with draft legislation expected for consultation at the end of 2026.
- The preferred direction is mandatory structured e-invoicing (EN16931) for B2B transactions, including both cross-border and domestic invoices.
- The proposed model uses near real-time digital reporting to the tax authority, with seller reporting for intra-EU B2B transactions and possible later extension to domestic transactions.
- The report favors a decentralized, no-clearance CTC model and recommends using Peppol as the mandatory exchange infrastructure.
- Final policy choices are still pending, with further government communication expected in summer 2026 and implementation potentially phased in between 2030 and 2032.
