Odoo electronic invoicing in Norway¶
Odoo Invoicing is your trusted partner for safe, efficient, and legally compliant e-invoicing solutions tailored to Norway’s regulatory standards.
Legal framework for e-invoicing in Norway¶
In Norway, e-invoicing is governed by regulations aligned with EU Directive 2014/55/EU, requiring B2G transactions to comply with mandatory e-invoicing standards. Norwegian public sector entities mandate the use of the EHF (Elektronisk Handelsformat) standard for e-invoices, ensuring uniformity and security. Norway is a member of the Peppol network, which supports standardized and interoperable cross-border e-invoicing throughout Europe. Although not mandatory for B2B transactions, e-invoicing is widely encouraged and adopted across the private sector to boost efficiency, transparency, and compliance.
