Generate EHF 3.0 and Peppol BIS 3.0 compliant UBL 2.1 XML e-invoices for Norway's confirmed B2B e-invoicing mandate. EHF 3.0 is Norway's national structured invoice format based on EN16931 and Peppol BIS 3.0, registered in ELMA โ the Norwegian participant lookup registry.
Approved by Stortinget (the Norwegian Parliament) in June 2026, Norway is enacting a phased, asymmetric B2B e-invoicing mandate. Starting 1 January 2027, issuing structured e-invoices via EHF 3.0 (Peppol BIS Billing 3.0) becomes mandatory for bookkeeping-obligated sellers whenever the buyer is registered in ELMA (the Electronic Capability Lookup registry). Receiving e-invoices and full digital bookkeeping become mandatory on 1 January 2030.

No, B2B e-invoicing remains voluntary throughout 2026. The confirmed mandate begins on 1 January 2027, as officially approved by Stortinget (the Norwegian Parliament) in June 2026.
Norway uses an asymmetric implementation timeline: starting 1 January 2027, issuing e-invoices becomes mandatory for bookkeeping-obligated sellers whenever the buyer is registered in ELMA (the Electronic Capability Lookup registry). However, receiving e-invoices and full digital bookkeeping only become strictly mandatory for all buyers on 1 January 2030. Thus, between 2027 and 2030, a seller must issue an EHF 3.0 invoice if the buyer is ELMA-registered, but buyers are not legally forced to receive them until 2030.
EHF 3.0 (Elektronisk Handelsformat) is Norway's national electronic invoicing format, fully aligned with European standard EN 16931 and Peppol BIS Billing 3.0. ELMA is Norway's national participant lookup registry (SMP) where Norwegian businesses register their organization numbers (EAS code 0192) to receive EHF e-invoices.
