About Cyprus E-Invoicing
Cyprus transposed Directive 2014/55/EU and requires public authorities to accept structured EN 16931-compliant e-invoices for public procurement above EU thresholds. Suppliers are not yet mandated to issue B2G e-invoices in all cases — the current framework permits voluntary compliance. There is no domestic B2B e-invoicing mandate in force, and Cyprus has not yet announced a national B2B timeline; ViDA cross-border requirements will apply from 1 July 2030.
