What the pack carries

Charts of accountsWhat a company installs, and who each chart is published for.
  • default (default) — 408 accounts, for companies
TaxesHow many the pack carries, at which distinct rates, and which treatments it can express.
21 taxes at rates of 0, 6, 9, 21
domestic, domestic_reverse_charge, exempt, export, foreign_services_received, import, intracom_acquisition_goods, intracom_acquisition_services, intracom_goods, intracom_services
Periodic declarationThe form the ledger is read into, the cadences it is filed on, and how many boxes it has.
  • NL-OB-AANGIFTE — 21 boxes, filed month or quarter or year
When it is dueA rule of the country, not a date. A pack that cannot state its rule states nothing.
  • the last day of the month after the period
The file it is deposited asThe brick of packages/formats that writes it, where one exists.
  • filed by hand on the administration’s portal
Electronic invoicingThe profile the country imposes, the day it starts, and the text that imposes it.
peppol-bis-3 no date of obligation

Aanbestedingsbesluit, art. 6, lid 1, ingevoegd bij Stb. 2018, 321 en in werking op 18 april 2019 — aanbestedende diensten en speciale-sectorbedrijven ontvangen en verwerken elektronische facturen die voldoen aan de Europese norm EN 16931 (richtlijn 2014/55/EU). Dat is een plicht om te ONTVANGEN; Nederland legt geen plicht op om elektronisch te factureren, noch aan de overheid (B2G) noch tussen ondernemingen (B2B): Wet op de omzetbelasting 1968, art. 35b, lid 1 — elektronische facturering wordt toegepast behoudens aanvaarding door de afnemer. Er is daarom geen mandatory_from. Het profiel is Peppol BIS Billing 3.0, dat de Nederlandse regels bevat; het partijschema is het KVK-nummer (EAS 0106), het btw-schema het Nederlandse btw-nummer (EAS 9944). Een overheidsorganisatie wordt op Peppol ook vaak met haar OIN (EAS 0190) geadresseerd

Free, and operated

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.

OperatedTransmission: the credentials, the certificate and a channel somebody keeps running. The return stays yours.

peppol-bis-3einvoicing
