- Philippine e-invoicing is governed mainly by RR No. 11-2025 and RR No. 26-2025, with the first major compliance deadline extended to 31 December 2026.
- Mandatory coverage includes e-commerce/internet businesses, large taxpayers, Large Taxpayers Service taxpayers, and businesses using CAS/CBA or invoicing software; microtaxpayers are exempt but may join voluntarily.
- The rules apply to B2B and some B2C transactions, especially online/platform sales, with more taxpayer groups expected to be added later.
- Reporting is expected to require direct system-to-system transmission in structured formats like JSON or XML, with earlier rules allowing real-time or near-real-time submission.
- Businesses should prepare ERP, POS, and invoicing systems for structured data, BIR transmission, and audit trails to avoid compliance issues by 31 December 2026.
