This blog explains how major ERP platforms integrate with global e‑invoicing mandates, outlining three integration patterns—native compliance modules, middleware layers, and certified access points—and five compliance models ranging from decentralised Peppol to real‑time reporting. It details the technical formats (UBL, CII, national XML/JSON), transmission channels (Peppol, government platforms, direct APIs), and country‑specific requirements for vendors such as SAP, Oracle, Dynamics 365 and NetSuite.

Belgium has increased its VAT registration threshold from €25,000 to €30,000, effective 1 January 2026. The e‑invoicing mandate that requires all VAT‑registered businesses to issue and receive structured electronic invoices via the Peppol network remains unchanged, but businesses below the new threshold will be exempt. The change is expected to have a limited impact on the overall e‑invoicing rollout.

Belgium has increased the annual turnover threshold for its domestic VAT exemption regime from €25,000 to €30,000, pending parliamentary approval. Businesses below the new €30,000 limit may still register voluntarily, while those exceeding it must register and comply with VAT obligations. The exemption still prevents input VAT recovery and removes periodic return filing.

The court confirmed that, under the EU standstill provision, services remain taxable even without an explicit national deviation. Travel agencies must therefore account for Belgian VAT on services such as hotels and flights for trips outside the EU.
