Australian Government establishing eInvoicing by default
The Australian Government is establishing eInvoicing as the default method for exchanging invoice information for all non-corporate Commonwealth entities (NCEs), with transitional arrangements commencing immediately.
The government is working to update its policies, processes and guidance to support the mandate. The ATO as the Australian Peppol Authority will provide support for agencies to help them meet the interim requirements and mandate.
