How xSuite can help companies in the Benelux to comply with E-Invoicing regulations

Topic: E-Invoicing


xSuite is a leading provider of AP automation solutions. We offer a range of solutions that can help businesses in Belgium, the Netherlands, and Luxembourg to comply with E-Invoicing regulations. In Belgium, the Netherlands, and Luxembourg, electronic invoicing (E-Invoicing) is becoming increasingly common. In all three countries, there are regulations in place that require businesses to use E-Invoicing for certain types of transactions.

In Belgium, E-Invoicing has been mandatory for all public sector transactions since 2013. In 2022, the Belgian government announced plans to make E-Invoicing mandatory for all B2B transactions by 2026. The Belgian government has developed a national E-Invoicing platform called Mercurius. Mercurius is a web-based platform that allows businesses to send and receive E-Invoices. In the Netherlands, E-Invoicing has been mandatory for public sector transactions to the central government since 2017. In 2019, this has been extended to all public sector transactions. In Luxembourg, E-Invoicing has been mandatory for all public sector transactions since 2019. The European Union started an initiative called ViDA ("VAT in the Digital Age”). This includes mandatory E-Invoicing for B2B transactions between member states that shall become effective in 2028. This will boost E-Invoicing in Belgium, the Netherlands and Luxembourg as EU-member states as well.

Benefits of E-Invoicing

E-Invoicing has revolutionized the way businesses process invoices, offering a plethora of benefits that can enhance operational efficiency, accuracy, and visibility. E-Invoicing eliminates the need for manual data entry and paper-based processes, streamlining invoice workflows and reducing the time spent on administrative tasks. This translates into significant cost savings and increased productivity, allowing businesses to focus on core business activities.The digital nature of E-Invoices minimizes the risk of errors, as information is automatically transmitted and validated. This reduces the likelihood of miscalculations, incorrect data entry, and processing delays, ensuring that invoices are accurate and compliant with financial regulations.

When E-Invoicing is combined with AP automation, it provides businesses with real-time visibility into invoice status, allowing them to track processes, and identify potential issues promptly. This enhanced visibility enables businesses to take proactive measures to resolve payment discrepancies and improve cash flow management. Integrating E-Invoicing into business operations can significantly transform a company's financial processes, leading to improved efficiency, accuracy, and visibility. By embracing the digital transformation of invoice management, businesses can unlock a world of benefits that drive operational excellence and financial success.

E-Invoicing is becoming increasingly important in Belgium, the Netherlands, and Luxembourg. As the use of E-Invoicing continues to grow, businesses in these countries should be prepared to adopt this technology.
