The rule

Since 1 January 2026, businesses in Belgium that are liable to VAT must use structured electronic invoices with each other. The Belgian government's own guidance says these invoices should be exchanged through the Peppol network. For the first three months of 2026 no fines were given to businesses that acted in a timely and reasonable way, and there is no general postponement.

The Belgian Peppol ID

A Belgian business is usually found on Peppol by its enterprise number (scheme 0208) or its VAT number (scheme 9925). Zyntra OS checks both by their own check digits before saving, so a slip in the number is caught at once.

Read the rule itself on einvoice.belgium.be, the Belgian government's e-invoicing site.
