- Mandatory Electronic Invoicing Proposal: The Slovak Ministry of Finance has introduced a draft law requiring all VAT payers to adopt electronic invoicing and real-time data reporting starting January 1, 2027, in alignment with EU directives.
- Digital Transformation of VAT Compliance: The proposed amendment to the existing VAT law aims to replace the dual-option system (paper and electronic invoices) with a fully digital framework, addressing issues related to tax evasion and processing delays.
- Combatting Tax Evasion: The initiative is driven by the urgent need to tackle persistent tax evasion practices that undermine public revenue, with electronic invoicing intended to enhance transparency and streamline tax reporting.
- Public Participation in Legislation: The Ministry encourages stakeholder and citizen engagement in the legislative process, allowing comments and suggestions on the draft law until January 31, 2025, fostering collaboration and refinement of the policy.
- Alignment with EU Vision: By implementing these changes, Slovakia aims to modernize its tax system, comply with EU goals for VAT in the digital era, and create a more transparent and efficient economic environment.
