What is an Accredited Service Provider?
A provider approved by the Ministry of Finance that validates your e-invoices, exchanges them with your customers’ providers through the Peppol network and reports them to the FTA. You must appoint one before your go-live date.
Does this apply to B2C sales?
The first phases cover B2B and B2G transactions. B2C invoices are out of scope for now; check the Ministerial Decisions for exclusions.
