CEF eInvoicing Video and Infographic: Available Now


The European Commission is happy to announce the publication of an infographic and video exploring the European standard on eInvoicing and the services offered by the Connecting Europe Facility (CEF) Building Block.

18 April 2019 is the major legal deadline in the transposition of Directive 2014/55/EU on eInvoicing in public procurement. The Directive aims to prevent the continued proliferation of non-interoperable standards and syntaxes in the Member States through a European standard on eInvoicing.

The CEF eInvoicing building block aims to promote the uptake and accelerating the use of eInvoicing in respect of the European standard, amongst both public and private entities established in the EU, as well as in participating EEA countries.

To help solution & service providers, public entities, policy makers and suppliers understand key aspects of the European standard, and support available to support eInvoicing respecting this standard, the European Commission has published an infographic and video.

This infographic provides a handy overview of the European standard, its implementation timeline and the services and support provided by the Connecting Europe Facility (CEF) eInvoicing Building Block.

This video explains three important components of the eInvoicing standard: the CORE, Core Invoice Usage Specifications (CIUS) and Extensions.

You can download both the infographic and video, as well as a wealth of other materials on CEF eInvoicing and the other Building Blocks (eDelivery, eID, eSignature and eTranslation) from the CEF Digital 2018 Media Library.
