Þann 25. september 2026 skyldar engin almenn löggjöf fyrirtæki til að skiptast á rafrænum reikningum sín á milli (B2B). Reglugerð nr. 44/2019 um rafræna reikninga vegna opinberra samninga skyldar aðeins kaupendur í opinberum innkaupum (4. gr.) — ríkisaðila frá 18. apríl 2019, sveitarfélög og opinber fyrirtæki frá 18. apríl 2020 — til að taka á móti og vinna úr rafrænum reikningum sem uppfylla evrópska staðalinn EN 16931, útfærðan með tækniforskriftinni TS236:2017. Reglugerðin leggur enga skyldu á seljanda til að gefa út slíkan reikning; í reynd verður birgir opinbers aðila þó að nota Peppol-netið til að fá reikninga sína samþykkta, og Fjársýsla ríkisins er tilnefndur Peppol-yfirvald (Peppol Authority) Íslands.

Where the open core stops.
The line is operational, not functional. Everything that keeps working on its own is open core; what needs credentials, a certificate or a channel somebody keeps running is the hosted edition.
