Ireland (PEPPOL / UBL 2.1)

This country uses the PEPPOL BIS Billing 3.0 specification for e-invoicing.

PEPPOL BIS Billing 3.0 is based on the Universal Business Language (UBL 2.1) format and adheres to the European standard for e-Invoicing (EN 16931).

PEPPOL also has its own requirements that are defined on top of UBL.

Mandate

Electronic invoicing is required for all public entities (B2G). However, it is optional for B2B.

Ireland implemented e-invoicing regulations in accordance with EU Directive 2014/55/EU, mandating central and sub-central authorities to receive and process electronic invoices. The national approach encourages voluntary adoption, supported by shared services and sector-specific strategies.
