Slovenia (2016 eInvoicing Country Sheet)

Legislation

The Law on the provision of payment services to budget users mandates the usage of eInvoices in billing for public procurement. The usage of eInvoices is fully applied in the public sector (B2G). The law further mandates the use of the Public Payments Administration of the Republic of Slovenia (PPA) eInvoicing system and details its tasks.

eInvoicing platform and eInvoicing management solutions

In Slovenia, it is mandatory that eInvoices in B2G are sent through the PPA eInvoicing system. eInvoices can be submitted by economic operators through different channels (websevices, webportal, etc.) and by using different market solutions. Bizbox and Bankart Banks Network are the main eInvoicing solution providers used by public administrations and economic operators in Slovenia.

Approach for receiving and processing eInvoices

In Slovenia, economic operators send all eInvoices to the PPA through its central eInvoicing system (PPA eInvoicing system). Economic operators can submit eInvoices:

• Manually via the Web portal PPA eInvoicing (UJP eRačun). This service is provided to small businesses allowing direct entry of up to 60 eInvoices per year;
• Automatically via eInvoicing solution providers that have successfully obtained certification from the PPA eInvoicing system and have established a direct link with it. This method for sending eInvoices is recommended for medium and large-sized enterprises due to the process automation and the data integration with the companies’ in-house management systems;
• Automatically through Bankart eInvoicing solutions provided by banks participating in the eInvoicing interbank exchange in Slovenia. It is used in the eInvoicing interbank exchange with the PPA. The Bankart allows the participating banks and the PPA to submit and receive electronic invoices to and from their clients using their own solutions (e.g. electronic banking services). Currently the following banks participate in the eInvoicing interbank exchange in Slovenia: Abanka d.d., Banka Koper d.d., Banka Sparkasse d.d., BKS Bank AG, Delavska hranilnica d.d., Deželna banka Slovenije d.d., Gorenjska banka d.d., Hranilnica LON d.d., Primorska Hranilnica d.d., Hypo Alpe-Adria bank d.d., Nova kreditna banka Maribor d.d., Nova Ljubljanska banka d.d., Poštna banka Slovenije d.d., Raiffeisen banka d.d., Sberbank banka d.d., SKB Banka d.d., Unicredit banka Slovenija d.d. and Public Payments Administration of the Republic of Slovenia.
