Sweden: Overview
Read about how to implement Sweden.
Mandate Information
The Swedish Government mandated e-Invoicing receiving and sending for Business-to-Government (B2G) at the state level starting from 1 July, 2008.
However, from April 2019 onwards, as the law on e-Invoicing in the public sector became effective, all the suppliers in the public sector are required to send e-invoices, and from 1 December 2019 all contracting entities in public sector (central government agencies, municipalities and regions) must be registered in Peppol.
In Sweden, the standard which meets the new law's requirements is Peppol BIS Billing 3, following EN 16931 compliance.
In Sweden, B2B e-invoicing is not yet mandatory by legislation, though the voluntary practise is allowed under the buyer's consent and quite widespread. Both Peppol and the local Svefaktura formats are in use.
In February 2023, the Swedish Business Registration Office (Bolagsverket) and the Tax Agency submitted a formal request to the Swedish government to assess the conditions for the adoption of mandatory e-invoicing in the B2B sector.****
