The Background, The Basics and The Benefits
On April 16th, 2014, both the European Parliament and the Council of the European Union officially adopted E-Invoicing Directive 2014/55/EU, which states that all European Public Administration entities are obliged to receive and process STRUCTURED electronic invoices sent by their suppliers.

OpenPEPPOL is a non-profit international association that manages the development and maintenance of the PEPPOL Network. A PEPPOL-based solution can be used by a company to send and receive e-invoices using one of the certified PEPPOL Access Points.
PEPPOL Access Points are e-invoicing solution providers who offer services fully compliant with the PEPPOL Network requirements. If a company is a certified PEPPOL Access Point, all clients can exchange their electronic documents with other participants of the network.
