About Czech Republic E-Invoicing

The Czech Republic transposed Directive 2014/55/EU and mandates e-invoicing for B2G transactions since 2019 (Act 134/2016). Public-sector contracting authorities must accept EN 16931-compliant invoices, typically via Peppol or the national ISDOC format. B2B e-invoicing remains voluntary, with adoption phased between 2023 and 2025. The Ministry of Finance is preparing for ViDA-aligned mandatory structured B2B e-invoicing by 2030. No real-time reporting or SAF-T framework is yet in force.
