Mandate Information

Act No. 2015/2019 on Guaranteed Electronic Invoicing and the Central Economic System, which has been in force since August 1, 2019, mandates that both central and sub-central authorities must accept e-invoices that are compliant with the European e-invoicing standard.

This legislation is the transposition of the Directive 2014/55/EU into Slovakian law, but its implementation is not yet complete. The introduction of e-invoicing obligation depend on the readiness of the e-invoicing centralized platform IS EFA (Information System for Electronic Invoicing). The delivery of IS EFA, originally planned for July 2022, has been postponed to the end of 2024 but further delays are expected.

The platform will support the European technical standards, such as OASIS UBL 2.1 or UN/CEFACT.

Implementation of obligations for B2B and B2C transactions has been tentatively planned by the government for 2025.
