What this means for you

Ireland announced domestic B2B e-invoicing and real-time reporting for VAT-registered large corporates in November 2028, extension to VAT businesses engaged in zero-rated cross-border EU B2B trade in November 2029, and full ViDA implementation in July 2030. Revenue has not published exact days on this timeline.

What FreeBillGen can verify

For eligible saved invoices, FreeBillGen can prepare generic OASIS UBL and UN/CEFACT CII mappings and run its named internal checks. These mappings are not EN 16931, Factur-X, Peppol, national-CIUS or clearance-platform validation. FreeBillGen does not transmit them through a provider network.
