Legislation · e-Invoicing
Mandatory electronic invoicing is the biggest change to Slovak business documents in years. For most companies it is an obligation. For prepared companies it is the first data source that looks the same at their suppliers as it does at home.
What changes
Until now an electronic invoice usually meant a PDF in an email — to a computer, an image somebody has to retype. The new obligation introduces a structured format that software understands on both sides.

The invoice travels through a certified delivery service that validates its structure and confirms receipt.
Invoice data is also submitted to the central infrastructure of the Slovak Financial Administration.
Timeline
The transition window is shorter than it looks. Anyone who wants a calm 2027 should be testing during 2026.
Voluntary participation in electronic invoicing testing. The right moment to check whether your software and your trading partners can handle a structured invoice.
Domestic invoices between VAT payers must be issued exclusively in the electronic structured format.
Breaching the electronic invoicing and reporting obligations carries fines of up to €10,000 for a first offence and up to €100,000 for repeated ones.
Our view
Most companies will treat e-invoicing as compliance: buy a service, tick the box, forget about it. Meanwhile something appears that was never there before.
Until now, connecting to accounting looked different in every package. A structured invoice is identical at your company and at your trading partners — one solution works everywhere.
An incoming invoice is machine-readable immediately, not once it has been posted. Your view of what the company owes moves weeks earlier.
Combining structured invoices with bank movements produces a cash outlook that does not depend on a hand-maintained spreadsheet.
The data somebody currently copies from a PDF into a system arrives in machine form. The time freed up is a measurable saving.
What we do
Sending and receiving invoices is handled by a certified provider. Our work starts where theirs ends — with what your company can see in that data.
We assess whether your current system can handle a structured invoice, and what you need from its vendor.
We feed incoming and outgoing invoices into a company-wide view of payables and receivables.
We combine them with the bank, so you see not only what has to be paid but what it will be paid from.
We set up alerts for documents that need a decision — approval, dispute or payment.
