Obiettivi dell'Osservatorio

The International Observatory on Electronic Invoicing aims to be an independent, qualified, third-party body for the monitoring and evolution of electronic invoicing, through the involvement of international providers, institutional actors and academics. It aims to develop analyses and lines of research that can help eInvoicing stakeholders to be aware of trends in the international market, while creating opportunities for discussion in a pre-competitive context, promoting fruitful collaboration between different actors and disseminating knowledge on eInvoicing at an international level.

International Observatory on Electronic Invoicing Research

In the context of the research edition, the International Observatory on Electronic Invoicing sets out to:

map and analyse B2b and B2g eInvoicing models in the EU, with periodic and structured collection of primary data on the current and future state of eInvoicing from eInvoicing experts in each European country;
map and analyse the spread of Peppol at the international level, gathering the point of view of Peppol certified service providers to understand their current operations and evolutionary strategies in the evolving international eInvoicing landscape;
examine the interplay between the evolving European eInvoicing landscape and the “VAT in the Digital Age” proposal and monitor its evolution;
analyse the different taxation models that exist at European level;
analyse the impact of the European adoption of eInvoicing on the VAT system as a whole.
identify the benefits (direct and indirect) associated with the introduction of eInvoicing, including those associated with the implementation of a cross-country system;
map and analyse international reporting and compliance models;
map interoperability standards and examine the possible introduction of a cross-border eInvoicing system starting from the interoperability layers defined by the EU Commission: legal, organisational, semantic, technical;
monitor recent developments within the European Union regarding the electronic exchange of data related to the transport process and its relationship to interoperability at EU level.

International Observatory on Electronic Invoicing activities

The activities planned by the International Observatory on Electronic Invoicing are:

A kick-off meeting to define and discuss research topics and cooperation formats between partners, institutions, academics and the research team;
Two workshops – including one during the eInvoicing Exchange Summit in Prague – for the whole community to share research results, provide updates on regulations, present concrete cases and create networking opportunities;
Sharing of workshop materials containing an update of the research findings, which will be sent to all Observatory supporters and will promote Observatory supporters with company logos and profiles;
Creation of an interactive European dashboard that will display all the country data collected by our national experts. The dashboard will include country factsheets for each country mapped, with more than 100 items of information on each country (model used, legislation in force, algorithms, comparative tables…). In addition, each country will have an as-is factsheet on the current situation and a to-be factsheet with the next steps planned by the country;
Webinars with our experts presenting the situation, model and regulatory details for their respective country, providing an in-depth country-by-country view of the eInvoicing framework;
Redaction of a digital summary report of all research findings, which will be distributed digitally to all Observatory supporters. It will also promote the Observatory’s supporters with company logos and profiles.
