Agenda

9:00 AM E-Invoicing Mandates 2026 and Beyond: A Practical Guide to Preparing for E-Invoicing Compliance

France's September 2026 and Germany's January 2027 e-invoicing mandates are not just tax events. They are hard operational deadlines that will directly impact billing and cash collection as governments in these markets force e-invoicing and e-reporting rules into your transaction flow. Small gaps in your O2C and P2P processes can compound quickly into invoice rejections, delayed customer payment, and rework across Finance, Tax, and IT.

Alex Baulf, Vice President, E-Invoicing, Avalara, will share key takeaways including:

What the upcoming e-invoicing mandates mean in practice
Where finance organizations are most exposed
What it really costs to get it wrong

Attendees will leave with a better understanding of what the e-invoicing mandates mean for organizations and where things go from here.
