Meet Europe's E-Invoicing Mandates with NetSuite
With multiple e-invoicing mandates in Europe in 2026 with Belgium, France or Poland, get compliant now with transparent and competitive pricing for your NetSuite integration to e-invoicing providers.
What Is e-Invoicing and Why Does It Matter?
E-invoicing isn't optional anymore. From January 2026, Belgium and Spain enforce mandatory structured electronic invoicing for B2B transactions. Germany follows in 2027. France, Poland, and other EU members are rapidly adopting similar mandates under the ViDA (VAT in the Digital Age) framework.
What this means for your business:
- Government-approved formats only: PEPPOL BIS, FatturaPA, XRechnung
- Certified platform transmission: Each country requires specific platforms
- Country-specific standards: Different timelines and technical requirements per market
- Hefty penalties: €1,500 to €5,000+ per violation in Belgium alone
The challenge? Managing this across multiple European subsidiaries is complex—unless you have the right partner and the right NetSuite integration. That's where Novutech comes in.
Understanding E-Invoicing Requirements in Europe
Country-Specific Formats
Each country mandates specific invoice formats: PEPPOL BIS for Belgium, FatturaPA for Italy, XRechnung for Germany, Factur-X for France. Your NetSuite must deliver data in formats that can be transformed to meet each country's standards.
Certified Platform Integration
Invoices must be transmitted through government-certified platforms (PDPs in France, SDI in Italy, PEPPOL Access Points). Your NetSuite needs native connectors to these platforms—no middleware bottlenecks.
Real-Time Status Tracking
Monitor e-invoice submission status, acceptance, and rejections directly in NetSuite. Automatic PEPPOL ID lookup retrieves recipient identifiers from the PEPPOL Directory based on VAT numbers. Full audit trails ensure traceability for tax authorities and internal debugging.
Bidirectional Flow (AR & AP)
You must both send e-invoices (Accounts Receivable) and receive them (Accounts Payable). Your NetSuite setup must handle both flows seamlessly with automated matching and approval workflows.
Multi-Country Scalability
If you operate across Europe, you need one integration that scales. Deploying separate solutions per country is costly, slow, and unsustainable as new mandates roll out.
