When does the obligation begin?

Clear timeline for the introduction of e-invoicing in Slovakia

2026

Voluntary testing

Companies can voluntarily test sending and receiving e-invoices via Peppol. The ideal time to prepare systems and processes.

1.1.2027

Mandatory e-invoicing

All VAT payers must issue e-invoices for domestic B2B and B2G transactions. Invoices pass through Peppol with automatic reporting to the Financial Administration of the Slovak Republic.

2030

Extension and simplification

The obligation will extend to cross-border transactions. The abolition of the VAT control statement is also planned — the e-invoice will replace it.

What is an e-invoice?

An e-invoice is not a PDF. It is a completely new way for businesses to exchange invoicing data.

Structured XML

An e-invoice is an XML document (UBL 2.1), not a PDF. Automatically processable by systems without manual re-entry.

Peppol network

Delivered through the verified and secure international Peppol infrastructure — like digital mail for invoices.

Automatic reporting

E-invoice data is automatically reported to the Financial Administration of the Slovak Republic — the so-called 5th corner. No manual reports.

Digital postman

To send e-invoices you need a certified digital postman (Access Point). Fakturuj.si has it included.

What is the penalty for non-compliance?

The Financial Administration of the Slovak Republic can impose a fine of up to €10,000 for repeated failure to issue e-invoices. We recommend preparing for the transition well in advance.

What if I am not a VAT payer?

If you are not a VAT payer, you do not need to issue e-invoices. However, you will need to be able to receive e-invoices from your suppliers who are VAT payers. Fakturuj.si allows you to receive e-invoices even on the free plan.

How do I send an e-invoice?

In Fakturuj.si, you create an invoice as usual. The system automatically converts it to e-invoice format and sends it via the Peppol network directly to the buyer. At the same time, data is automatically reported to the Financial Administration of the Slovak Republic.

Can I continue to send PDF invoices?

After 1 January 2027, VAT payers will be required to issue e-invoices in XML format. A PDF invoice can still be generated as a visual supplement, but it will not be considered an e-invoice under the law.
