Status on the implementation of the European Standard on eInvoicing (EN)
The eInvoicing standard is not fully implemented.
However, eInvoices for public contracts (above the threshold values in accordance with Art. 49b ÖAWG) sent to the Liechtenstein national administration in XML format must comply with the European standard for electronic invoicing.
Use of Core Invoicing Usage Specifications (CIUS) at national level
A CIUS has been drafted to reflect the government VAT requirements and it is currently in place.
Digital reporting requirements
A CIUS has been drafted to reflect the government VAT requirements, and it is currently in place. The government plans to have only one document for consultation by companies, presenting all the expected business and VAT requirements.
The Liechtenstein E-Invoicing Forum (LEIF) was an observer within the eInvoicing country representatives (former European Multi-Stakeholder Forum on Electronic Invoicing (EMSFEI)) which brought together stakeholders from national eInvoicing forums and from the user side of the market to help pave the way for a broad-scale adoption of eInvoicing at national and EU-level (ended mandate in June 2020).
You can also access the 2019, 2020, 2021 and 2023 eInvoicing Country Sheets via the eInvoicing User Community.
