Beginning January 1, 2026, Belgium will require a mandatory Electronic Invoice system for all B2B transactions, following the Peppol BIS 3.0 standard for structured and automated invoicing. Belgian businesses registered for VAT must use structured electronic invoices through the Peppol network and the Peppol-BIS standard. Paper invoices and unstructured formats, like PDFs, will no longer be allowed. The B2C sector is exempt from this requirement.
Companies with an existing EDI communication method may continue using it if both parties agree or the invoices meet specific requirements.
KGT has developed an SAP-integrated e-invoicing add-on solution for Belgium, featuring outbound and inbound functionality to meet tax reporting requirements. This add-on includes a data extractor and a cockpit for creating periodic electronic invoices in the e-Factura format, adhering to the Peppol BIS standard.
The solution will facilitate e-invoice submission through the clearance model introduced by the Belgian tax authorities in 2028, requiring only their published APIs. Until then, clients can deliver and receive electronic invoices via the Peppol Network or email. If a client wants to integrate with the Peppol network starting in 2026, they will need to acquire an access point provider, and KGT can assist with this.
