At the end of 2021, nearly one invoice in four received by Brussels public administrations was in electronic format!

Since the launch of electronic invoicing in 2020, Brussels public administrations have been receiving more and more invoices in electronic format: almost a quarter of invoices were received in electronic format at the end of 2021.

The rate of electronic invoicing reached 23% at the end of 2021. And it’s not over yet, thanks to new public contracts and the ongoing work of public administrations and companies to change the way they work!
