Mandatory e-invoicing in Austria

Austria has been implementing mandatory e-invoicing in B2G transactions for several years now.
As of 2014, all invoices to the public administration must be issued in a structured format and sent via the central USP (Unternehmensserviceportal) platform or the PEPPOL service.

In B2B transactions, e-invoicing is not yet mandatory, but an increasing number of companies are implementing it voluntarily, using formats that comply with the European EN 16931 standard and the Peppol network, to streamline billing and prepare for upcoming changes under the EU 's "VAT in the Digital Age" (ViDA) package.

E-invoicing standards in Austria

The e-invoicing system in Austria is based on structured formats in accordance with EN 16931 and supports both B2G exchanges and voluntary B2B implementations.

The main components of the system are:

  • USP (Unternehmensserviceportal) - a central platform for sending e-invoices to public administrations,

  • Peppol - the primary electronic communication channel in B2G relationships and increasingly used in B2B; Austria is among the early adopters,

  • ebInterface format - Austrian national e-invoice standard based on XML, compliant with EN 16931,

  • European formats (UBL, CII) - supported in cross-border exchanges and by operators operating in the Peppol network.

Why do CFOs choose Infinite GIP?

Infinite is a certified PEPPOL access point

This means that we are officially authorized to send documents via the PEPPOL network - the European standard for electronic data exchange (invoices, orders, etc.).

You send invoices and documents to administrations and business partners in Europe directly through PEPPOL, without additional integrations.

Compliance with EU security and interoperability standards (including eIDAS and RODO).

Fewer exceptions, more automation - all PEPPOL countries (e.g., Germany, France, Scandinavia, Benelux) "understand" documents sent via this route.

Peace of mind for CFOs and accountants - because documents are sent through a trusted, controlled channel that complies with EU regulations.

Expert opinion
Digitization is no longer about choice - it's about speed and scale. And a well-chosen technology can turn an obstacle into an advantage. That's why it's important to think globally from the start. Even if you're currently operating in just one market, things can change quickly. Regulations evolve, markets open up - and being well prepared at the start avoids chaos and costly adjustments in the future.
