CEF eInvoicing: 2016 Study on the 'State of play of B2G eInvoicing in public procurement'

Thomas Fillis | 23 December 2016


At the recent CEF eInvoicing Stakeholder Day 2016, which took place in Brussels on 1 December 2016, the Commission was delighted to launch the 2016 Study on the 'State of play of B2G eInvoicing in public procurement'. This study is an early present for all eInvoicing stakeholders this holiday season and you are encouraged to download your free copy immediately.

The study investigates the state of play of Business to Government (B2G) eInvoicing in public procurement across different levels of administrations in European countries. This includes an analysis of the eInvoicing legal landscape, the standards in use and the platforms used to support eInvoicing in public procurement. It explains the measures that are, or could be, provided by the European Commission to support European countries to comply with the eInvoicing Directive.

In case you do not have time to read the whole study, 13 high-level 'Country Sheets' have been produced from its findings, which contain national information about eInvoicing. Please feel free to reuse and share. Please do not hesitate to contact the CEF Building Blocks if you have any comments or would like to create one for your country, if it is not among those available.

Finally, we are grateful for your feedback on the 2016 Study and want to build on this work in 2017. Please tell us what should be addressed in the 2017 Study and help us to identify the broadest range of stakeholders to participate in this work. Please let us know what you would like to see in the 2017 Study on the 'State of play of B2G eInvoicing in public procurement' here by the end of January 2017.
