Germany is phasing in mandatory e‑invoicing. Domestic businesses have had to receive e‑invoices since 1 January 2025; issuing transitions run until 31 December 2026 or, in some cases, 31 December 2027. From 2028, e‑invoices are generally required for in-scope domestic B2B transactions, while statutory exceptions remain. See the mandate timeline guide.
