The financial management conference on electronic invoicing in Slovakia showed that worries about the new system are unnecessary. Starting next week, entrepreneurs will be able to join the system voluntarily.
The event, titled “Electronic invoicing as a key tool for digitalizing business in Slovakia”, was organized by the Financial Administration and attracted strong interest from entrepreneurs and experts. Speakers from the Ministry of Finance, the financial administration, and the technology sector explained that electronic invoicing will simplify business rather than complicate it.
Finance Minister Ladislav Kamenický explained that the move is aimed at fighting tax evasion and ensuring fair conditions for all.
Financial Administration President explained that eInvoice is a natural step in digitalization, designed to reduce paperwork and make everyday business easier. He announced that from next week, entrepreneurs can voluntarily register and start using the system ahead of its mandatory rollout in 2027.
The conference also presented practical demonstrations, free solutions for small businesses, and support tools. Recordings will be available on the Financial Administration’s social media and websites, including info-efaktura.sk. For assistance, entrepreneurs can contact the call center at 048/4317 222.
Also, Slovakia’s Financial Administration has published an expanded FAQ on electronic invoicing, adding 29 new questions and answers.
The updates introduce:
· Scope of mandate: The FAQ explains who must issue and receive e‑invoices.
· XML archiving: Taxpayers are required to archive invoices in XML format.
· Alternative channels: Other delivery methods are allowed if the recipient agrees.
· Unresolved DRR reporting: Rules for consent‑based alternative channels are still pending guidance from the Ministry of Finance.
Technical Updates for Providers:
· SMP deregistration: ERP vendors and service providers must deregister within three working days when changing providers.
· Corrective invoices: Document type 384 has been confirmed for the autumn 2026 Peppol BIS release.
