E-Invoicing Support for the Netherlands

We're happy to introduce e-invoicing support for the Netherlands in RO App. Businesses operating in the Netherlands can now generate and send electronic invoices that meet local requirements without switching between multiple systems.

This feature is available through our integration with B2Brouter, a trusted provider of electronic invoicing solutions across Europe. Once enabled, invoices can be created automatically based on your workflow and delivered directly to the payer.

RO App helps simplify electronic invoicing in the Netherlands with automation built into your daily process.

Automatic invoice creation

Invoices are generated automatically when an invoice reaches the selected status in your workflow. This helps reduce manual work, avoid missed invoices, and keep billing aligned with your operational process.

Fast delivery to customers

For Peppol delivery, the payer must be connected to the network with receiving enabled.

Manual sending and export

You can also send e-invoices manually or export them in supported electronic formats when needed. This gives you flexibility for one-time invoices, corrections, or specific customer requests.

Electronic invoicing has become a standard practice in the Netherlands, driven by government initiatives focused on digital transformation. Since January 2017, all central public authorities have been required to accept electronic invoices, significantly streamlining public transactions and reducing administrative burdens. Additionally, as of January 2021, e-invoicing is mandatory for suppliers engaging in new public-sector contracts, enhancing digital integration further.

Businesses and freelancers operating in the Netherlands can choose between governmental platforms like Digipoort or authorized service providers approved by the Nederlandse Peppolautoriteit (NPA), such as B2Brouter, which directly connect to the Peppol network. Moreover, the mandatory digital archiving of invoices for at least seven years simplifies record management and auditing, saving considerable time and resources.

Understanding the Netherlands e-invoicing environment, its critical dates, legislative framework, and practical aspects, enables informed decision-making.
