- HMRC’s recent consultation on e-invoicing aims to align the UK with the EU’s VAT in the Digital Age framework, driving efficiency in digital tax reporting and real-time compliance as countries worldwide increasingly mandate e-invoicing for transactions.
- Although e-invoicing is legally permitted in the UK, its adoption remains low despite potential benefits such as enhanced productivity, improved cash flow, and streamlined tax reporting, necessitating businesses to integrate compliance directly into their transaction systems to meet real-time reporting requirements.
- As businesses prepare for the transition to real-time e-invoicing, they can adopt various models (Post-Audit, Clearance, Hybrid) while investing in technology, engaging with tax authorities, and prioritizing compliance to mitigate risks and adapt to evolving regulations, particularly in light of HMRC’s ongoing consultation and future changes.
