Overview of e-invoicing in Germany
The current invoicing landscape in Germany varies between states, owing to the de-centralised federal structure. In an effort to bring more standardisation, more security, and more efficient invoicing processes across Germany, e-invoicing is set to become mandatory for all private companies. The phased roll-out of the mandate begins in 2027.
