NL · PEPPOL (Simplerinvoicing)

E-invoicing in Netherlands

The Netherlands runs on PEPPOL via the Simplerinvoicing initiative — mandatory for central government and broadly adopted in B2B. Eurobillr ships every Dutch invoice as PEPPOL BIS by default.

PEPPOL is the standard

Central government has required PEPPOL e-invoicing for suppliers since 2017 (NLCIUS, the Dutch CIUS of EN 16931). B2B is not yet mandatory, but the Dutch market has standardised on PEPPOL via the Simplerinvoicing network — most accounting and ERP systems are connected.

For cross-border invoicing to other EU partners, PEPPOL BIS Billing 3.0 is the EU baseline.

Routing identifier

PEPPOL participants are addressed by KvK number (scheme 0106) or Dutch VAT number (scheme 9944). Eurobillr resolves the correct scheme automatically when you enter your counterparty.

How Eurobillr handles it

  • Default Dutch invoices ship as PEPPOL BIS Billing 3.0 UBL.
  • Bi-directional: send outbound invoices and capture vendor bills as expenses.
  • NLCIUS-compliant content for B2G when needed.
