Spring Release ’26: New E-Invoicing Compliance Capabilities

There’s something about the Spring release that I always look forward to. It’s a moment to pause and appreciate the work that’s quietly been compounding — features built, regulations tracked, partnerships forged — all so that when a compliance deadline hits, our customers don’t have to scramble.

This Spring, that work is very visible. We’ve made significant strides in our e-invoicing compliance roadmap, covering Belgium, Poland, and France, while also expanding our platform’s global reach. Here’s what’s new and why it matters for your AP team.

For a full picture of everything in this release, head over to our Release Notes on the Knowledge Base.

E-Invoicing Compliant in Belgium

Belgium has adopted the Peppol framework for B2B e-invoicing, with Peppol BIS 3.0 as the primary format, being fully aligned with the European standard EN 16931.

Non-compliance carries real consequences: penalties start at €1,500 for a first violation, rising to €3,000 for a second and €5,000 for each subsequent breach.

Here’s where Tradeshift stands out: we are a Peppol-certified Access Point provider in Belgium, and our technology already powers two national e-invoicing systems. That’s not a future promise; it’s infrastructure that’s live and proven.

Looking ahead, Phase 2 (from January 2028) will introduce near real-time e-reporting through a 5-corner model, with direct data transmission to tax authorities. We’re building toward that now, so you won’t be caught off guard.

What this means for your team:

• Penalty-free compliance from day one — with Tradeshift as your certified Peppol Access Point, you’re covered from the mandate’s start, not scrambling to catch up
• Proven infrastructure, not a pilot — our technology already runs Belgium’s Mercurius and Luxembourg’s B2G platforms
• No Phase 2 surprises — we’re already tracking the 2028 e-reporting evolution so your team doesn’t have to

Clearance Mandate Compliant in Poland

Poland’s KSeF mandate is one of the more complex clearance requirements in Europe, and we know AP teams don’t want to be managing multiple integrations just to stay compliant.

Tradeshift delivers a fully integrated clearance flow for KSeF. All cleared documents are automatically ingested into Tradeshift ScanIO, with real-time reconciliation between KSeF and your Tradeshift platform to keep data accurate and auditable.

What this means for your team:

• Zero integration overhead — one managed flow, no separate vendor contracts
• Real-time data accuracy — live reconciliation eliminates manual errors and discrepancies
• Uninterrupted AP workflows — automated ingestion into ScanIO keeps processing moving
• Future-proof compliance — regulatory updates are handled through our managed service, not your IT backlog

Permanently Registered PA in France

France’s e-invoicing reform is one of the most closely watched in Europe, and Tradeshift is positioned right at the center of it. As of January 6th, 2026, Tradeshift is a permanently registered PA (Plateforme Agréée immatriculée définitive), a status that reflects the rigorous scrutiny of the French tax authority and gives our customers confidence that we’re a fully sanctioned operator in this market.

On the platform side, we’ve updated Tradeshift to support all mandatory French localization fields, including Cadre de facturation, Bénéficiaire, and Montant déjà payé. Our roadmap includes continuous deployment of upcoming regulatory fields alongside integrated French Tax clearance status tracking directly within Document Manager.

What this means for your team:

• Unified user experience — all mandatory compliance data visible directly on the invoice, no portal-switching required
• Real-time status tracking — French Tax clearance statuses surfaced within your existing Document Manager workflow

New Platform Language: Thai

We’ve officially added Thai as our 27th supported language, with a translation accuracy rate of over 99% across the interface. For AP and procurement teams managing cross-border operations in Southeast Asia, this means your Thai-speaking suppliers and colleagues can work in a platform that feels native to them, reducing onboarding friction and driving better engagement from your Thai supply base.

What this means for your team:

• Faster supplier onboarding — fewer training hurdles when the platform speaks your suppliers’ language
• Higher adoption rates — a localized experience reduces drop-off and support tickets from Thai-speaking users
• One platform, truly global — manage cross-border operations without asking part of your supply base to work in a foreign language

Exchange Rate Support for Malaysia (LHDN)

To meet Malaysia’s LHDN (Lembaga Hasil Dalam Negeri) requirements, Tradeshift now mandates the inclusion of MYR-equivalent totals and the applicable exchange rate on all foreign currency invoices — automatically formatted before they ever reach the MyInvois portal.

For AP teams, this eliminates a frustrating and costly problem: invoices being automatically rejected by Malaysian tax authorities due to missing currency data. First-time-right submissions mean faster payment cycles and cleaner audit trails.

What this means for your team:

• No more automatic rejections — MYR data requirements are enforced upfront, before invoices reach MyInvois
• Faster payment cycles — valid invoices on first submission means less back-and-forth with suppliers
• Clean audit trails — synchronized foreign and local currency values on every transaction, ready for review

The Bigger Picture

What ties all of this together isn’t just a list of country updates, but a deliberate compliance strategy. Tradeshift isn’t reacting to mandates; we’re building ahead of them, securing certifications, forging strategic partnerships, and embedding compliance into the platform so your AP team can focus on the work that matters.
