Slovakia has decided to introduce a central e-invoicing system called Informačný Systém Elektronickej Fakturácie (IS EFA).

Pursuant to IS EFA – Technical outline, there are different modules in the e-invoicing setup:

  • EFA Gateway: responsible for communication with the taxpayer ERP system, in particular, to allow receipt of supplier invoices.
  • EFA Processing: responsible for processing electronic invoices.
  • EFA Delivery: responsible for delivery of invoices to customers.
  • Analytical System: responsible for performing checks on reported invoices.
  • EFA User Application: responsible for generating electronic invoices and managing them.
  • Invoice disclosure: responsible for invoice disclosure for B2G and G2G scenarios.

There are two main methods of entering invoices in the IS EFA system:

  • Automatic upload directly from taxpayer ERP dedicated to medium and large taxpayers.
  • Manual upload using EFA User Application dedicated to small taxpayers.

The implementation process of e-invoicing is divided into two phases:

  1. From January 2022, e-invoicing through IS EFA becomes mandatory in B2G, G2G, and G2B transactions.
  2. From January 2023, e-invoicing through IS EFA becomes mandatory for all other transaction types, including B2B scenarios.
