Slovakia announces an e-invoicing/real-time reporting system

In a recent press release the Slovakian Tax authorities pointed at a new draft law on sending data to the Financial Administration. Please follow the link here for the full text.

The intention of the draft law is to introduce the obligation for all business entities to issue an invoice for each business transaction within a certain period of time. At the same time, invoice pre-clearance is also foreseen: the obligation to send specific invoice data to the Financial Administration before the final version of the invoice is prepared and sent to the buyer. Taxpayers can fulfil their invoice reporting obligations in various ways: using an e-invoicing service provider; directly from their accounting software/ERP using a certified communication method or using a free government portal. There will also be reporting obligations on the buyer.

Currently there is no more information or technical details available. We will continue to monitor Slovakia’s progress and report these in our upcoming e-invoicing updates.
