Denmark eInvoicing regulations
June 2024
Companies using standard DBS must book digitally from the next accounting period starting July 1, 2024
Electronic Invoicing Denmark
The public sector has mandated electronic invoicing since 2005, meaning Business-to-Government (B2G) invoices can be sent as e-invoices. The platform used for e-invoicing is NemHandel, which to some part is also used for Business-to-Business (B2B) transactions on a voluntary basis.
The format used is OIOUBL, based on UBL 2.0, or Peppol BIS 3.
NemHandel is connected to Peppol, meaning it can be used to reach both public organisations and private companies. Peppol is likely to replace NemHandel in the future as the only standard and network.
Regarding digital reporting, the Danish Parliament enacted the Accounting Law for digital accounting systems, on May 19, 2022. This legislation will be implemented progressively in the coming years. As of February 1, 2023, the regulations mandating standard digital accounting practices became effective.
The responsible tax authority in Denmark is The Danish Tax Agency (SKAT).

ERST releases requirements for custom digital bookkeeping systems.
The Danish Business Authority (Erhvervsstyrelsen or ERST) has released requirements and guidance for custom digital bookkeeping systems (DBS). Taxpayers using this accounting software category should prepare their systems by 1 January 2025.
As previously reported by Pagero in an earlier update, Denmark is mandating the use of digital bookkeeping systems (DBS). There are two categories of DBS in Denmark: standard and custom (also known as specially developed).
The requirements for the standard DBS have been known for quite some time, such as stricter IT security and e-invoicing capabilities, and many accounting software providers have already been registered with ERST.
For the custom DBS, the requirements have just been released and are practically identical to the requirements of the standard systems. However, unlike the standard DBS, where the responsibility of fulfilling the requirements falls on the provider of the system, it will be up to the company using the custom DBS to ensure the requirements are met.
Danish companies using an accounting system classified as a custom DBS should start preparing for the obligation that will enter into force on 1 January 2025.
