Key Features of Invoicing Software for Denmark
Essential invoicing software for Denmark must prioritize compliance with local regulations and seamless digital exchange capabilities. Crucially, the software needs to ensure adherence to the Danish VAT Act and EU regulations, requiring specific invoice content such as sequential numbering, issue date, full supplier and customer details, VAT registration numbers, clear descriptions of goods/services, applicable VAT rates, and total amounts in DKK or EUR. For business-to-government (B2G) transactions, electronic invoicing has been mandatory since 2005 via the NemHandel platform, which is interconnected with the international Peppol network. While OIOUBL 2.1 has been a national standard, Denmark is transitioning towards making Peppol BIS 3.0 the core e-invoicing standard, with OIOUBL 2.1 being phased out by NemHandel BIS 4 (a Peppol BIS 4 adaptation) between 2028 and mid-2029. Therefore, robust software should support both Peppol BIS 3.0 and OIOUBL 2.1 formats to ensure current and future compliance.
