The European Union is far from having a common standard for e-invoicing. Of the 18 countries where companies are required to issue e-invoices to other companies or organizations for their transactions, five had only a domestic standard, while other five used both national and European standards. Another six of them opted for the European standard only (the so called EN16931).
