What the law now expects from you

Since 1 January 2026, most B2B transactions between Belgian VAT-registered businesses require a structured electronic invoice, delivered over the Peppol network. A PDF in an email no longer qualifies.

For many SMEs this surfaced as a line in an accountant's email — and then a practical question: who is going to produce, send, track and archive these invoices every week? That part is exactly what Chut does.

The legal scope has edges and exceptions — your accountant remains the authority on how the mandate applies to your business. Information last verified: 5 July 2026.

In practice

  • Structured format (not PDF-by-email) for B2B invoices
  • Delivery over the Peppol network via a certified Access Point
  • Applies to most Belgian VAT-registered businesses
  • Incoming invoices arrive the same way — you need to receive, too

From "job done" to "invoice delivered" — one approval

E-invoicing in Chut is not a separate tool to learn. It is the same flow as everything else: the work is captured, the invoice is drafted, you approve, and the transmission runs.

1

Builds the compliant invoice

Your quote becomes a structured e-invoice in the format Peppol requires — your numbering, your VAT treatment, no re-typing.

2

Transmits over the Peppol network

Sent through a certified Peppol Access Point, with the delivery status tracked until it reaches your customer’s system.

3

Receives and archives

Incoming e-invoices land in the same queue as everything else: read, matched to the supplier, filed, and scheduled for payment.

4

Chases what goes unpaid

A compliant invoice can still be a late one. The reminder flow you approve runs on top — first nudge to final notice.

Peppol questions, straight answers

What changed on 1 January 2026?

Belgium made structured electronic invoicing mandatory for most B2B transactions between VAT-registered businesses. In practice: a PDF attached to an email no longer counts — the invoice must travel in a structured format over the Peppol network. For how the rules apply to your specific situation, your accountant is the right authority.

What is Peppol, in plain words?

A secure delivery network for business documents. Instead of emailing an invoice and hoping, your invoicing system hands it to a certified Access Point, which delivers it to your customer’s Access Point — verified, structured, and confirmed.

Do I need to change my invoicing software?

No. Chut works with the tools you already use: it prepares the compliant invoice, you approve it, and it handles the transmission and the follow-up. Your existing workflow stays.

What does Chut actually send — and when?

Nothing without your approval. You see the invoice exactly as it will be transmitted, approve it once, and Chut sends it through a certified Access Point, tracks the delivery status, and archives the result.

What does this cost?

Chut is free during the design-partner phase — including e-invoicing. The honest version of what comes after is on the pricing page.
