E-invoicing: performance disparities in Europe
As of 2025, all EU member states will be expected to apply the same standards with regard to invoice digitization. The digital transition has already kicked off in many countries—including in the private sector—and such developments have led to some preliminary conclusions about e-invoicing implementation in the B2B and B2G sectors.
But progress is unequal, as some countries have only very recently achieved compliance. Others still are gradually digitizing their public sectors and several are still struggling to develop digitization practices due to administrative challenges.
