In Belgium, it is generally required for a taxable person to provide an invoice for each supply of goods and services to other taxable persons, non-taxable legal entities, and in some cases, non-taxable individuals for VAT purposes.
If a business fails to provide the necessary invoice this can result in government fines up to double the VAT owed.

While electronic invoicing is not mandatory in Belgium, businesses must use it when invoicing the government. This means that the government requires electronic invoices to be received and processed for all B2G (business-to-government) transactions.
