What is Peppol?

A network for the secure, structured exchange of business documents.

Peppol (Pan-European Public Procurement Online) is an international standard for e-invoicing and e-procurement. From 1 January 2026, e-invoicing via Peppol will be mandatory in Belgium for all VAT-registered companies. Peppol enables invoices, orders and credit notes to be sent directly and securely between companies, without email or PDFs.
