- VAT taxpayers are starting to read regulations about structured invoices for 2026 and finding them incomprehensible, particularly unclear about what will legally constitute an invoice
- From February 1, 2026, there will be seven different forms of VAT invoices including paper, traditional electronic, structured, and various electronic forms under different legal articles
- Each of these seven forms will also apply to correcting invoices, creating fourteen total variations, and all forms can be used for duplicates when original invoices are lost
- The law distinguishes between making invoices available and using invoices, though structured invoices cannot actually be used or made available since they exist only within the KSeF system
- Any separate document that legally establishes the existence of a structured invoice has its own objective and legal existence, and multiple such documents can exist without being the actual invoice
