About Latvia E-Invoicing
Latvia is rolling out e-invoicing in clearly defined phases. Since 1 January 2025 all suppliers to public administrations must issue structured EN 16931-compliant e-invoices through the eAddress (eAdrese) platform or Peppol. From 1 January 2026, B2G invoice data must additionally be reported to the State Revenue Service (SRS). The major next step is mandatory structured e-invoicing and simultaneous data reporting for all domestic B2B transactions from 1 January 2028. The model is decentralised based on Peppol, with the national eAddress platform serving as the primary B2G channel.
