Electronic invoicing will become mandatory for B2B very soon and is already mandatory for B2G operations in Belgium and Luxembourg.
To ensure you are ready for this new obligation, we have already implemented a new electronic invoicing module that uses the "Peppol First" strategy in Flexina.
What is electronic invoicing and what will it change for my business?
Electronic invoicing, e-invoicing, e-billing, Peppol invoicing, e-invoice... are several terms used to describe a new way of drafting and transmitting your invoices electronically and securely with acknowledgment of receipt to your customer.
Simply put, sending an electronic invoice is the equivalent of sending a paper invoice by secure registered mail with acknowledgment of receipt, but via electronic means.
Is it more difficult to draft and send an electronic invoice than a paper invoice?
No, Flexina has implemented the "Peppol First" strategy in a completely transparent and easy-to-use way for its users.
With Flexina, you draft your electronic invoice in the classic way, then our system automatically detects if your customer is registered on the Peppol network and offers to send your electronic invoice with a single click.
When your customer receives your electronic invoice, you receive proof of sending that ensures 100% that your e-invoice has been transmitted.
It's as simple as sending a paper invoice by email and as secure as sending a paper invoice by registered mail with acknowledgment of receipt.
Should I already switch to electronic invoicing in Luxembourg?
Yes, even if you don't work or don't yet work with public administrations or certain large companies, we advise you to already switch to electronic invoicing for the following reasons:
- You will already be ready when electronic invoicing becomes mandatory for B2B.
- You will improve invoice transmission with your customers and suppliers registered on the Peppol network.
- You will send the equivalent of registered mail with acknowledgment of receipt at a lower cost.
- You will receive your purchase invoices electronically directly in the software and save considerable time in managing your purchases.
- You will transmit your electronic invoices to your accountant who can automatically import them into accounting.
