Characteristics of electronic invoicing in Romania
The European Commission has published the official authorization for Romania to implement mandatory B2B e-invoicing as of January 1, 2024. The implementation of electronic invoicing between companies will not be done gradually but will be mandatory for all companies as of January 2024 (pending confirmation by the Romanian authorities).
The central platform RO e-Factura has been available since November 2021 both for invoice exchange with public administrations (B2G) and between private companies (B2B).
