E-Invoice 2026: Embrace Peppol Today — Why, How, and What Could Go Wrong
Countdown to 2026: The Only Peppol Solution You’ll Ever Need
Belgian VA registered businesses face a legal shift: as of January 1, 2026, Peppol‑based structured e‑invoicing is required in all B2B transactions. This session clarifies the urgency behind the mandate—VAT fraud reduction, automation, and streamlined processing—and identifies the common obstacles companies face when implementing e‑invoicing systems.
A hands‑on demonstration with e-invoice.be revealed:
• How to convert traditional PDFs or Excel documents into Peppol-compliant invoices effortlessly
• How to receive and forward e‑invoices directly in your everyday email, with no workflow disruption
• The advantages of API access for automation, plus how to register quickly and affordably e-invoice.be
We capped it off by dissecting:
• The good: efficiency gains, ready workflows, compliance at low cost
• The bad: possible pitfalls during transition, format constraints, stakeholder readiness
• The ugly: unexpected costs, vendor quirks, and the need to update legacy systems
