Peppol e-invoicing
Send and receive e-invoices.
The way the law now requires.
Peppol became mandatory for Belgian B2B invoicing on 1 January 2026. Dokus is connected from day one — every invoice you create is routed automatically through a certified access point. No setup, no per-invoice fee, no second tool.
Belgian mandate
1 January 2026
Every Belgian VAT-registered business must now issue and receive structured Peppol e-invoices for B2B transactions. PDF attachments no longer satisfy the law.
If you are using Dokus, you are already compliant. There was nothing to switch on.
The flow
Four steps. None of them yours.
01
You create the invoice
Same flow as always — pick the client, add lines, hit send.
02
Dokus structures it
The invoice is converted to UBL — the format Peppol speaks. Automatically.
03
Routed through Peppol
Transmitted via Recommand, a certified Belgian access point. No subscription on your side.
04
It lands in their inbox
Delivered directly into your client's accounting software. No PDF chase, no email follow-up.
The shift
From PDF in an email to structured data in a network.
The old way
- PDF attachment in an email.
- Recipient retypes the data into their tool.
- Errors and lost invoices are common.
- No legal status as of 2026.
Peppol via Dokus
- Structured UBL routed through a certified network.
- Lands directly inside your client's accounting software.
- Immutable, traceable, auditable.
- Required by Belgian law since 1 January 2026.
