![]() ![]() It is about the content and the end product. E-invoicing is typically referred to as the mandatory use of a predefined format to issue invoices electronically, with specific data on the invoice, and sometimes issued through or facilitated by a tax authority system.Each country creates and introduces its own approach to e-invoicing and the electronic exchange of invoice and/or transactional data.īroadly speaking, however, there are a few common characteristics that tend to surface across systems: While the main policy aims are often similar for tax authorities when introducing these systems, there is no one standard approach to e-invoicing or real-time reporting systems. Meaning they increase their capacity to find anomalies in the system and automatically act on these towards taxpayers (tax adjustments, late interest and fines) as needed, thus, closing the VAT gap Different types of electronic invoicing and reporting systems? Tax authorities have a much easier way to automate the audit of taxpayer data at scale if invoices have a standardized data structure and prescribed format and content. This is because having (near) real-time information on transactional data greatly improves the efficiency with which tax authorities can respond to errors in the system (errors or tax fraud). ![]() And many more are working towards the introduction of e-invoicing systems. Many countries throughout the world have already introduced e-invoicing regulations and systems. Why are e-invoicing systems introduced across the world? And it has proven to be a very effective measure for that. The global rise of e-invoicing systems over the past years in many ways is directly tied back to the goal of combatting VAT/GST fraud and under-collection, in other words: closing the VAT gap. Countries regulate the e-invoice format to enhance tax compliance and allow for (near) real-time tax information auditing. However, electronic invoicing has been is usually regulated over the last two decades by national tax authorities. Automation requires eliminating traditional paper invoices and manual processes. The error-prone nature of paper invoices and processing times are falling short of facilitating today's business needs, as manual processes are highly time-consuming and more costly.
