Overview

2026 is a massive year for mandates. By the end of next year, 60% of the EU’s GDP will be online.

Worldwide, countries are taking different approaches. Belgium is famously adopting a big bang approach, where all companies VAT-registered in Belgium must comply with requirements on the 1st January, otherwise they will face fines, penalties and unpaid invoices. Belgium follows Mexico, Chile and Senegal with the big bang approach. Other countries are opting for a phased approach, like France and India.

This webinar examines the two approaches, what the plusses and minuses are, and how organizations are affected. We will explore

  • How countries already online have benefitted from the two approaches
  • Why countries are drawn to one version over another
  • Countries coming up and what we know about approaches they’ll take
  • How Accounts Payable teams can operate seamlessly when some suppliers are in scope, and others will come online over time

For any organization affected by mandates, this webinar will help you plan how to tackle your overall program and individual countries.
