Dear customers,
In the new edition of our newsletter, we bring you information about the most interesting events in the world of e-Invoicing for the month of April.
On Thursday, 23 April 2026, we organised the first of our planned webinars on the topic of e-Invoicing in Slovakia. The meeting took place via Microsoft Teams. We presented our mib:Peppol solution and our service offering for implementing mandatory e-Invoicing in participants' organisations.
We designed this solution to be as universal as possible, covering three areas:
- 1 Integration of SAP systems into the Peppol network.
- 2 Integration of non-SAP invoicing systems into the Peppol network — for both SAP customers and those using other systems.
- 3 Operation of our own certified Access Point (AP) for sending documents via the Peppol network.
mib:Peppol is built on a set of proprietary cockpits (for SAP and for AP) communicating via API interfaces. We chose a solution based on proprietary components to ensure maximum independence and flexibility.
Alongside our own solution, we also offer customers the option of introducing e-Invoicing through SAP DRC implementation, whose localisation for Slovakia is currently underway at SAP.
Participants were also presented with the following topics:
- legislative specifications
- basic prerequisites for use
- compatibility of solutions with customer systems
- comparison of features of our solution and SAP DRC
- comparison of business strategies, advantages and disadvantages
The webinar, which lasted approximately two hours, was attended by more than 70 participants. In addition to providing an overview of the solution, we answered many questions, and further communication is ongoing.
We completed certification, during which we successfully passed the following tests.
Complete PKI Migration Test Suite (G3)
Verifies that our Access Point is fully migrated to the new Peppol G3 PKI infrastructure and can securely communicate with partners using both G2 and G3 certificates.
Submission PKI Migration Test Suite (G3)
Confirms that the Access Point can send messages via the new G3 PKI infrastructure in a unilateral outbound communication scenario.
eDelivery Test Suite
Verifies compliance of the Access Point implementation with Peppol network specifications. In TLS grading verification we achieved the highest possible rating of A+.
BIS Billing 3.0 Test Suite
Confirms that the Access Point correctly processes and exchanges electronic invoices according to the Peppol BIS Billing 3.0 standard.
Slovakia Testing – Billing (3.0.20)
Verifies that the Access Point correctly sends BIS Billing 3.0 documents and generates and sends Slovak TDD documents to the Financial Administration.
Slovakia Testing – Self-Billing (3.0.1)
Confirms correct exchange of self-billing documents in the Peppol network and compliance with Slovak TDD reporting requirements.
We have created the mib:Peppolbox web application for monitoring Peppol transfers. It also offers a clear overview of all received and sent Peppol documents passing through the Access Point (invoices, corrective invoices, SK Tax Data Document, Message Level Status). It also includes transport logs from the Access Point — complete document lifecycle, document visualisation and export in XML and PDF formats, as well as an Integration REST API.
During May we will carry out end-to-end tests of our solution in an internal testing environment and at the end of the month we will conduct pilot tests in a customer system.
As part of our partner programme, we are also building a partner ecosystem, where we are currently in discussions with the first four partners regarding cooperation on the distribution and implementation of our mib:Peppol solution.
What's new in SAP DRC — The currently communicated release date for the Slovakia solution is October 2026 for on-premise versions and November 2026 for SAP S/4HANA Public Cloud. Until the official release by SAP, you can use the detailed SAP DRC Cloud Edition documentation on BTP.
Access to the SK SMP testing environment from the Financial Administration of the Slovak Republic is currently planned for the second half, or even the end, of May 2026. The exact date has not yet been finally confirmed and will depend on the readiness of the environment on the part of the Financial Administration.
Representatives of the Financial Administration of the Slovak Republic, at a joint meeting with economic software manufacturers and so-called Digital Postmen, provided information about a planned legislative amendment by the Ministry of Finance of the Slovak Republic. This amendment would abolish the obligation to report data to the Financial Administration for every received invoice on the part of the recipient's access point. The obligation to report data to the Financial Administration would be retained only for the sender's access point.
At the same time, this legislative change should abolish the obligation for property lessors (e.g., flat owners) to register in the Peppol network and receive invoices electronically.
Adoption of the legislative change is expected in autumn of this year.
On 22 April 2026, representatives of Mibforma a.s. attended the 19th General Assembly of the OpenPeppol organisation. This year's General Assembly confirmed that the Peppol network is experiencing unprecedented global growth and is transforming from a European tool into a key global digital infrastructure.
1 Record year 2025 in numbers
- Member base: The number of members grew by nearly 40% to a total of 913.
- Global reach: Among the new Peppol authorities are Slovakia, France, Nigeria, Taiwan and the UAE. The share of non-European members has grown to 30%.
- Network activity: In 2025, more than 330 million documents were exchanged (an increase of 34%).
2 Strategic priorities and technical development
- ViDA project (VAT in the Digital Age): Peppol is intensively preparing for new EU legislation through the ViDA pilot, in which 21 tax administrations are involved.
- SML Insourcing: OpenPeppol is taking over management of the key infrastructure (SML) from the European Commission, thereby strengthening its independence.
