Comply with E-invoicing Regulations in the United Kingdom

Legislation introduced across the UK between 2018-2019 mandates the use of e-invoicing in payments for the National Health Service (NHS). E-invoicing is currently not compulsory for B2B or B2G organisations, but public entities must be able to receive and processes e-invoices if required by a supplier. Here are the regulations:

Invoice Format

The formats used for e-invoicing in the United Kingdom include traditional EDI standards such as EANCOM, ODETTE and UN/EDIFACT, XML-based standards comma-delimited ASCII, PDF, UBL and UN/CEFACT.

Invoice Archiving

Under these regulations, businesses must retain e-invoice data for at least 6 years across the United Kingdom. 

B2B E-invoicing

Compliance with UK conditions is compulsory when issuing invoices to EU member states. EU law mandates member states to permit cross border e-invoicing according to the rules of the supplier country with an exception for supplies of digital services for consumers in other member states.

Send & Receive E-invoices in the UK

Even though there is no central e-invoicing platform, Peppol is a common network to use and is required for the use of the NHL system. Additionally, Scotland and Wales have created their own e-invoicing platforms – PECOS P2P in Scotland and eTradingWales and ePayment in Wales.
