- E-invoicing between companies becomes mandatory in Belgium from January 1, 2026, with Peppol adoption among the highest globally.
- Peppol offers benefits like faster invoice processing, quicker payments, and secure digital sharing with accountants.
- Peppol uses a secure four-corner model, with certified Access Points required to meet strict security standards (e.g., ISO 27001).
- The main security risk lies in verifying the sender and receiver’s identity; not all verification methods offer the same security level.
- If a company fails to register its VAT-based Peppol-ID, there is a risk of misdirection or interception of invoices.
