March 1st 2024<\/em><\/p>\n

As in many European countries, the Directive 2014\/55\/EU has been implemented in Cyprus, making e-invoicing for B2G transactions mandatory. For now, B2B transactions are not yet affected, but we can expect some changes with the ViDA proposal being put in place.<\/p>\n

Cyprus has successfully implemented the e-invoicing system, forcing all public entities within the country to be capable of receiving and processing electronic invoices since 2020.<\/p>\n

However, it is currently not mandatory for these entities to send electronic invoices to their suppliers or for business-to-business (B2B) transactions. For B2B transactions, bilateral agreements between business partners are necessary.<\/p>\n

The e-invoicing model follows the EN 16931 standard, and the transmission of electronic invoices is conducted through the Peppol network. An electronic signature (e-signature) is not required and the archiving period for e-invoices amounts to eight years.<\/p>\n

How does it work?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

The Ministry of Finance is the entity responsible for implementing e-invoicing in Cyprus but it\u2019s the Treasury that receives the invoice in their portal (previously called ARIADNE, we\u2019re giving more details down below).<\/p>\n

The main Government\u2019s arguments in favor of e-invoicing are sustainability, but also promotes a smart and inclusive economy and society.<\/p>\n

Cyprus is expected to develop a centralized e-invoicing platform, similar to an ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) system operated in a hybrid model.<\/p>\n

Currently, economic operators submit e-invoices to the Treasury of the Republic on a voluntary basis via the e-invoicing Peppol Access Point and through www.gov.cy, the Cyprus Government gateway portal<\/a>, which replaced the ARIADNE digital services catalogue. The e-invoices are processed manually but the system will be updated for an automated version once the centralized ERP System of the Cypriot Government enters into operation.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
