Croatia has released its first list of information intermediaries for e-invoicing and fiscalisation. This marks an important step toward mandatory e-invoicing from 1 January 2026, as outlined in Croatia’s e-invoicing timeline update.
From that date, all VAT-registered companies in Croatia must issue and receive e-invoices for domestic transactions. The reform aims to strengthen fiscal control, simplify reporting, and align Croatia’s system with EU digital standards. For more background, see our earlier posts on Croatia’s fiscalisation law and the mandatory B2B and B2G rollout.
Role of intermediaries
The intermediaries listed by the Croatian Tax Administration are certified to handle:
- e-invoice exchange
- fiscalisation
- e-reporting
- metadata management
Working with a certified intermediary ensures secure and compliant data exchange. The Tax Administration will update the list regularly as new providers are accredited.
Preparing for 2026
Businesses should start preparing their systems and processes now. Selecting a certified intermediary and ensuring ERP compatibility will be crucial for compliance.
