Legislation
In Luxembourg, there is no legislation for electronic invoicing (eInvoicing) in place. eInvoices in B2G public procurement are used on a voluntary basis.
The Luxembourgish government plans to transpose the eInvoicing Directive 2014/55/EU into national legislation in 2018.
eInvoicing platform and eInvoicing management solutions
In Luxembourg, eInvoices are submitted and processed using a central PEPPOL access point as well as sector-specific dispatching and accounting solutions. The maintenance of the PEPPOL access point is outsourced to an external service provider. According to the eInvoicing programme of the Luxembourgish government, the PEPPOL access point is to be used by all governmental organisations and can also be used by local organisations, given that they integrate PEPPOL with their accounting systems. They would have to individually integrate the PEPPOL access point as currently the accounting back office of the government is not used by the local municipalities and only available for the central government.
Approach for receiving and processing eInvoices
Economic operators can submit eInvoices via the PEPPOL access point using the PEPPOL-BIS and UBL 2.1 eInvoicing standards. The contracting authorities process these invoices for the moment still manually.
The eInvoicing programme of the Luxembourgish government foresees the integration of eInvoices with the government’s accounting system with the aim of fully automating the eInvoicing submission, processing and payment process.
There is no additional information available.
