Thus, entrepreneurs who send invoices to public authorities in Brussels and Wallonia will soon be required to send their invoices electronically in the context of public contracts and concession agreements. So says the royal decree of March 9, 2022. This electronic invoicing obligation will enter into force in stages depending on the value of the public contract or concession agreement. Make a note of these 3 deadlines in your calendar:

   
• Nov. 1, 2022: mandatory electronic invoicing for public contracts with a value of 214,000 euros or more.
   
• May 1, 2023: mandatory electronic invoicing for public contracts whose estimated value equals or exceeds 30,000 euros.
   
• Nov. 1, 2023: mandatory electronic invoicing for public contracts whose estimated value is less than 30,000 euros (with possible exceptions for amounts less than 3,000 euros).

In other countries in Europe, electronic invoicing is also already becoming mandatory for business-to-business transactions. So in Belgium, this is also expected. As an entrepreneur, are you ready for it yet?
