Slovakia's Ministry of Finance has drafted a VAT reform package that transposes the EU's ViDA reforms and introduces changes to the 2027 e-invoicing regime. Key adjustments include removing the reporting requirement for domestic buyers during the transition period, exempting private landlords from receiving structured invoices, soft‑landing the first three months of 2027, and tightening the deadline for intra‑EU reverse‑charge invoices to the 15th day after the transaction month.

Slovakia will enforce mandatory B2B e-invoicing via the Peppol network from 1 January 2027 under Law 385/2025 Z.z., following a voluntary testing period in 2026. All e-invoices must use the EN 16931 XML standard (UBL 2.1 or CII), be issued within 15 days, and reported within 5 days, with penalties up to €10,000 per infraction and €100,000 for repeated violations.

Slovakia is drafting legislation to extend its domestic reverse charge regime to high‑risk B2B services such as IT, advertising and consultancy. The new rules would shift VAT liability to the customer and would only take effect once Slovakia secures a derogation from Article 193 of the EU VAT Directive. Businesses should prepare for customer‑side VAT accounting, stricter VAT ID checks and ERP updates.

Slovakia will enforce a 2027 e‑invoicing mandate for B2B and B2G domestic transactions, requiring invoices to be issued and received in the EU EN16931 structured format and reported in real‑time to the Finance Administration. The mandate will roll out in stages, with a voluntary transition in early 2026 and full compliance by 1 January 2027, while intra‑community e‑invoicing will become mandatory from July 2030. Additional changes include tax‑registration reforms effective 1 January 2026 to curb fraud and the replacement of control statements with the new e‑invoicing regime.

Slovakia will expand its special method of tax payment from 1 January 2027, allowing tax authorities to mandate split payments when there is a reasonable concern a supplier will not remit VAT. The new rule requires customers to pay the VAT directly to the tax authority and imposes penalties equal to the full VAT amount for non‑compliance. It is part of Act No. 385/2025 Coll. and aligns with the 2027 e‑invoicing mandate.
