The table below shows the date from which this obligation applies to the invoices concerned.

The FPS Mobility and Transport advises you not to wait for these dates: do not hesitate to comply with this obligation earlier!

All invoices.

As from the three dates mentioned above, ONLY electronic invoices (= sent via a billing software compatible with the sending of e-invoices) will be accepted by the FPS Mobility and Transport for the invoices concerned.

This obligation results from the Royal Decree of 9 March 2022 laying down the implementing rules of the obligation for economic operators regarding electronic billing in the context of public contracts and concession contracts, which was published in the Belgian Official Gazette on 31 March 2022.
