E invoicing, e invoicing standardization in europeFriso de Jong
CEN has a long history of working on eInvoicing standardization through its eInvoicing Workshop. The Workshop has produced 3 phases of work including recommendations to update the EDI framework, standardized invoice contents, and a framework for an emerging European invoice operator network. CEN will continue this work and enhance it in line with recommendations from the EU Expert Group, including developing user guidelines for adopting the UN/CEFACT Cross Industry Invoice in Europe. Multiple CEN workshops contribute to the overall standardization landscape, and awareness and participation are key to successful implementation.
Work Group 3 of the CEN e-Invoicing project developed three documents over multiple face-to-face meetings: 1) Conformance Criteria to guide implementation of e-invoicing in Europe, 2) a Model Interoperability Agreement for electronic invoicing service providers, and 3) a position paper on Addressing & Routing that identifies areas for further work. The group included contributors from across Europe who debated topics like terminology, legal compliance, technology standards, and addressing schemes to establish guidelines for electronic invoicing interoperability.

Stork Deliverable D4.1 Interim Report On E Id Process FlowsFriso de Jong
STORK is a large scale pilot in the ICT-PSP (ICT Policy Support Programme), under the CIP (Competitiveness and Innovation Programme), and co-funded by EU. It aims at implementing an EU wide interoperable system for recognition of eID and authentication that will enable businesses, citizens and government employees to use their national electronic identities in any Member State. It will also pilot transborder eGovernment identity services and learn from practice on how to roll out such services, and to experience what benefits and challenges an EU wide interoperability system for recognition of eID will bring.
The STORK consortium would like to announce that the approved STORK deliverables have now been released for public view and uploaded to the STORK website under the STORK Materials section.

Electronic invoice processes in europe and enablement of sm es to use them ef...Friso de Jong
This document summarizes a workshop on electronic invoicing for small and medium enterprises (SMEs). It discusses how SMEs could benefit from e-invoicing through potential cost savings but may struggle with initial investments and resources required. The document also outlines barriers that prevent SMEs from adopting e-invoicing, such as a lack of standardized processes. Finally, it proposes several ways to facilitate SME adoption of e-invoicing, including through political support, incentives from large business partners, and user-friendly software solutions.
The document summarizes the European Commission's action plan to promote e-invoicing in Europe. It outlines four priorities: 1) ensuring a consistent legal environment, 2) achieving mass adoption among SMEs, 3) stimulating widespread use, and 4) promoting a common data model. Actions include implementing new VAT directive rules, revising e-signature rules, launching projects to help SMEs, publishing best practices, and establishing national and European e-invoicing forums. The goal is for e-invoicing to become the predominant invoicing method in Europe by 2020.
The document summarizes a presentation on an e-invoice compliance toolbox. It describes an interactive user interface based on an annex matrix from sustainable compliance guidelines. The interface allows filtering by role, process step, and business implementation. It is intended for entities using e-invoicing, especially SMEs. The document requests comments on the usability of the interface and content from the commentary and matrix.
The document discusses guidelines for electronic invoicing compliance across Europe. It aims to develop simplified, standardized guidelines that are easy to understand and apply. The guidelines will be translated into multiple languages and used to create an interactive online tool to help companies comply with e-invoicing regulations. The tool will classify different e-invoicing systems and controls to ensure invoice authenticity, integrity, and legibility. It will also provide guidance on processes to link invoices to supplies for audit purposes. Feedback is sought on the guideline content and usability of the interactive compliance tool.
The document summarizes the proceedings of the CEN WS eInvoices III Open Meeting held on December 12, 2011 in Brussels. It includes a Code of Practice and Glossary of Terms for electronic invoices. The Code of Practice establishes guidelines for trading parties, service providers, and public administrations regarding electronic invoicing. It addresses issues like ensuring authenticity and integrity of electronic invoices. The meeting aimed to finalize the Code of Practice and Glossary of Terms as requested by the European Commission to support adoption of e-invoicing.

E invoicing as accelerator for cross-industry ediFriso de Jong
E-invoicing is accelerating the shift from paper to electronic documents across industries in Europe. By 2020, it is predicted that over 50% of B2B invoices will be electronic. E-invoicing helps align the differing needs of large and small companies by offering formats and processes appropriate for all sizes. It also helps standardize documentation between countries and industries. As e-invoicing adoption increases, it will drive increased automation of related electronic documents across supply chains.

10. Europese regelgeving
Vanuit EU BTW-perspectief is het toegestaan om
papieren facturen te vervangen door elektronische
facturen, mits er aan bepaalde vereisten wordt
voldaan. Deze vereisten worden beschreven in de
Europese richtlijn 2001/115/EC, die als doel heeft de
regels rond elektronische facturatie te vereenvoudigen
en te harmoniseren.
Vanaf 1 januari 2004 zorgt de richtlijn voor een zekere
harmonisatie tussen de EU-lidstaten met betrekking tot
het factureringsproces, de inhoud van de factuur,
elektronisch factureren en (elektronische) archivering
van facturen.
11. Nationale wetgeving(en)
Internationaal gezien bestaan er verschillen in de
juridische waarde van een elektronische factuur. De
EU-richtlijn werd immers niet door alle lidstaten op
dezelfde manier in nationaal recht omgezet en dus
bestaan er internationaal verschillen in de juridische
waarde van een elektronische factuur.
Vanuit “VAT” perspectief mogen facturen in principe
overal bewaard worden, in elk land en op elk medium.
Echter bedrijven moeten in staat zijn om de facturen
aan de belastingdienst te kunnen verstrekken binnen
een redelijke termijn en de authenticiteit, integriteit en
leesbaarheid van de data kunnen garanderen.
12. Digitale handtekening
Voor elektronische facturen zijn er twee soorten digitale
handtekeningen die binnen de EU lidstaten (en daarbuiten)
worden toegepast:
geavanceerde digitale handtekening
gekwalificeerde digitale handtekening
Een digitale handtekening is een handtekening die
onlosmakelijk verbonden is aan de ondertekenaar en aan
de inhoud van het document dat getekend wordt. Een
gescande handtekening is geen digitale handtekening.
Gekwalificeerde handtekeningen zijn is juridisch “zwaarder en
technisch nog veiliger”. Enkele landen in de EU, waaronder
Duitsland en Oostenrijk eisen het gebruik van deze digitale
handtekening.
