- From January 1, 2026, most VAT-liable businesses in Belgium must use structured electronic invoices for B2B transactions.
- For the first three months of 2026, no sanctions will be imposed for non-compliance if businesses show timely and reasonable preparation for e-invoicing.
- This is not a general postponement; tolerance applies only to businesses that have made sufficient efforts to comply.
- The tax authorities will assess compliance efforts on a case-by-case basis.
