Germany is implementing mandatory eInvoicing for business transactions, with the official rollout set to begin on 1 January 2025. From this date, businesses must be ready to receive structured electronic invoices compliant with EN 16931 standards. Gradual phasing out of paper and unstructured electronic formats will take place, with all businesses required to comply by 1 January 2028. These measures aim to standardize national electronic administrative systems for B2B transactions in Germany.
