Timeline

Each step says who is affected and, where the source states it, whether the obligation is to send, receive or both.

    Act on electronic invoicing in public procurement (2018:1277) in force; applies to all public procurement, including below EU thresholds

  2. 1 November 2019B2GIn forcereceive

    All public sector entities must receive and process EN 16931 e-invoices

Details and caveats

The EC factsheet (last updated Aug 2025) is internally inconsistent on whether suppliers are obliged to send e-invoices (header says B2G mandate 'YES', summary says no supplier mandate), so the sending obligation is left unknown here. Peppol BIS Billing 3.0 is used as-is without national adaptations; SFTI recommends Peppol for the public sector. No B2B/B2C mandate and no real-time reporting; no next steps announced. Archiving: invoices and supporting documents must be kept for 7 years (Skatteverket).
