The EU Parliament’s ECON had voted on 23 October 2023 for a one-year delay to all 3 ViDA pillars. However, this is non-binding but certainly reflects concerns that businesses and tax authorities will not be ready by 2025 for pillars 2 and 3.
VAT in the Digital Age old timetable – now delayed
2025 (now July 2028) – Single VAT Registration & Platform Economy pillars
2028 (now July 2030) – Digital Reporting Requirements pillar
Introduction of Digital Reporting Requirements for header-level data of intracommunity supplies within two days of the supply.
E-invoices supplant paper invoices for legal purposes except in limited circumstances. Member states have the option to impose e-invoices for domestic transactions but all national regimes must converge with the EU e-invoicing standard, EN 16931.
No new pre-clearance e-invoice regimes may be introduced by member states. Those already in place, Italy SdI and Poland’s 2024 planned e-invoicing, may continue until January 2028.
Ending of summary invoices
Mandatory structured e-invoicing for intra-community supplies of goods based on EN 16931 standard. These will include new data fields (e.g. settlement details)
Withdrawal of ESL reporting since supplanted by the new DRR regime, above.
