Odoo electronic invoicing in Latvia¶
Odoo Invoicing is your trusted partner for safe, efficient, and legally compliant e-invoicing solutions tailored to Latvia’s regulatory standards.
Legal framework for e-invoicing in Latvia¶
In Latvia, electronic invoicing is governed by the Law on Accounting and regulations aligned with EU Directive 2014/55/EU, mandating the use of e-invoicing in B2G transactions. All public sector invoices must be sent in the European Standard EN 16931 format through platforms such as eInvoicing.lv, Latvia’s official e-invoicing infrastructure. Latvia is also connected to the Peppol network, facilitating standardized cross-border e-invoicing across the European Union.
