    Verified Peppol-ready vendors

    Irish software with confirmed Peppol support

    Each vendor below is flagged Peppol-ready in the Vendors.ie dataset. The evidence link points to the vendor's own documentation. Click through to the verified profile for full Irish compliance details.

    We only flag a vendor as Peppol-ready when a weekly cron finds first-party evidence on the vendor's own domain. We do not infer readiness from third-party member lists, marketing claims, or feature comparison sites. Absence from this list means unverified, never "does not support". The full data is also available asJSON.

    Background

    What Peppol is, and who in Ireland needs it

    Peppol is two things at once: a network (a federated set of Access Points that route business documents securely) and a set of document formats (Peppol BIS profiles built on UBL, aligned with the EU EN 16931 standard). When an Irish supplier sends an invoice to a French buyer over Peppol, both ends agree on the format and the route, with no PDF emails, no portal logins, and no per-customer integrations.

    Suppliers to Irish public bodies need it today: the Office of Government Procurement and the HSE accept Peppol e-invoices, and several hospitals, councils, and central government departments already require them. Cross-border EU traders need it as France, Belgium, Poland, Germany and others roll out their own B2B e-invoicing mandates between 2026 and 2028. Anyone bidding on Irish public tenders sees it too - tender documents on Tenderwatch.ieincreasingly call out Peppol as a non-negotiable requirement.

    What buyers actually ask

    Peppol Ireland - frequently asked questions

    What is Peppol?
    Peppol (Pan-European Public Procurement Online) is the EU-wide network and document standard for exchanging electronic invoices, credit notes, orders, and despatch advices. A Peppol invoice is a structured UBL XML document that conforms to the Peppol BIS Billing 3.0 specification, aligned with the EN 16931 European e-invoicing standard. Buyers and suppliers exchange these documents through Peppol Access Points, which authenticate, route, and deliver the invoices on the network.
    Is Peppol mandatory in Ireland?
    For business-to-government (B2G) transactions, yes. The Office of Government Procurement, the HSE, and most Irish public bodies accept Peppol e-invoices today, and many require them. For business-to-business (B2B) transactions, Revenue announced a phased rollout in October 2025 with Phase 1 due 1 November 2028 for large corporates, and every Irish business required to be able to receive structured eInvoices from that date. The EU ViDA package sets a hard cross-border deadline of 1 July 2030.
    How do I check if a specific Irish business is Peppol-registered?
    Use the registry lookup on this page. It searches the official OpenPeppol Directory for participants registered under country code IE, refreshed weekly. Search by name or filter by document type to see what a supplier, customer, or public body is set up to send or receive.
    Why does the Peppol-ready software shortlist look short?
    We only flag a vendor as Peppol-ready when our weekly matcher finds first-party evidence on the vendor's own domain - typically a product page or knowledge base article naming Peppol BIS Billing 3.0. We do not infer readiness from third-party member lists or marketing claims. Absence from the shortlist means unverified, never "does not support". Coverage grows each week as new evidence is captured.
    What does "Peppol-ready" software actually mean?
    A Peppol-ready product can output a Peppol BIS Billing 3.0 invoice (or credit note, despatch advice, etc.) in valid UBL XML, and send or receive those documents through a Peppol Access Point - either as an Access Point itself or by routing through a partner. A vendor saying "we support UBL" or "we support EN 16931" alone is not the same claim; the standard alone does not put a document on the network.
