As of June 2026: e-invoicing to the Dutch government (B2G) is mandatory via Peppol, while B2B remains voluntary; a Peppol-based domestic B2B regime is under consideration with a phased rollout proposed from around 2030. Confirm current plans with the Netherlands Enterprise Agency (RVO) / Logius.
The Netherlands mandates electronic invoicing for suppliers to the central government and broader public sector, exchanged through the Peppol network (or directly via Logius Digipoort). For B2B transactions there is currently no general mandate, but adoption is among the highest in the world and Peppol is widely used voluntarily. The government has signalled a future Peppol-based domestic B2B e-invoicing and digital-reporting regime, with draft legislation expected for consultation and a phased rollout proposed from around 2030. Accepted government formats are Peppol BIS 3.0 and the Dutch SI-UBL (NLCIUS) implementation of EN 16931.
Invotify Pro exports Peppol BIS 3.0 and UBL 2.1 files aligned with EN 16931 — the same family of formats the Dutch public sector accepts and that a future B2B regime is expected to build on. You send the exported document through your Peppol access point (or Logius Digipoort for government invoices); Invotify produces the structured data rather than acting as an access point itself. Adopting Peppol-ready invoicing now means no rework when domestic B2B rules arrive. E-invoicing is a Pro feature.
Not currently. There is no general B2B e-invoicing mandate. B2G (invoices to the central government and public sector) is mandatory via Peppol, and B2B e-invoicing is voluntary but very widely adopted. A Peppol-based domestic B2B regime is under consideration for later this decade.
Structured XML in Peppol BIS 3.0 (preferred) or SI-UBL 2.0, the Dutch UBL implementation of the EN 16931 standard, sent over Peppol or via Logius Digipoort.
Yes. Invotify Pro exports the Peppol BIS 3.0 / UBL files used for B2G today and likely for B2B in future, so you can invoice public-sector clients now and be ready for any upcoming mandate. Invotify generates the file; transmission is handled by your Peppol access point or Digipoort.
The government has signalled a Peppol-based domestic B2B e-invoicing and reporting regime with a phased rollout proposed from around 2030, aligned with the EU ViDA initiative. Timelines are not yet final — confirm with RVO / Logius.
E-invoice export — UBL 2.1, CII, and Peppol BIS 3.0 — is part of Invotify Pro, which starts at €49/month. Pro also adds EU VAT (VIES) validation, teams, payments and advanced reports.
