Slovakia Publishes Expanded FAQ Guidance on Mandatory E-Invoicing
The Financial Administration published expanded FAQ guidance ahead of the 1 January 2027 mandate. It confirmed that B2G e-invoices travel over the Peppol network on the same basis as B2B rather than through the IS EFA invoicing system, which Act 215/2019 Z.z. as effective from 1 January 2027 removes, and that recipients are identified by DIČ. Fines run to EUR 10,000 per infraction and EUR 100,000 for repeated non-compliance. Digital reporting through the tax authority endpoint (C5) and the Tax Data Document was expected in the third quarter of 2026. Sending over Peppol stayed voluntary through 2026 and becomes mandatory from January 2027. This March version of the guidance has since been withdrawn and replaced; the current FAQ 9/DPH/2025/IM is dated 26 August 2026.
