E-Invoicing in Cyprus

B2G MandatoryPeppol

Cyprus has transposed EU Directive 2014/55/EU requiring public sector to receive e-invoices, but there is no mandate for suppliers to issue e-invoices. B2B e-invoicing is voluntary and requires bilateral agreement. The government has long-term plans for mandatory B2G supplier and B2B mandates but timelines remain unclear.

Implementation Notes

Receiving only, no supplier mandate. Cyprus's B2G e-invoicing is a receiving capability — public entities must accept e-invoices, but suppliers are not required to send them. The ARIADNI portal and Peppol network are available channels. A B2G supplier mandate was proposed in 2022 but not implemented due to ERP readiness concerns. Processing within government is currently manual.
