Malta e-invoicing

Invoicerr does not support Malta

No Malta data file exists anywhere in this repository — no country policy, no identifiers, no tax system, no transmission channel. Nothing on this page is implemented. It is here so that someone who wants Malta support knows what adding it would involve. The countries Invoicerr does cover are listed in the country directory.

Malta's public authorities receive e-invoices over the Peppol network, under the Commissioner for Revenue (CFR). The country is also preparing a future Digital Real-Time Reporting (DRR) platform for broader B2B use.

What supporting Malta would involve​

FormatEN 16931 (Peppol BIS). This repository already builds and validates it (formats/peppol-bis-provider.ts, formats/ubl-provider.ts), so the format would not have to be written from scratch.
TransmissionPeppol Access Point. The Peppol transport was removed from this repository on 2026-09-15 for want of a real Access Point account, so one would have to be built.
Inherited, unverified

Carried over from an earlier research pass in this repository's own history, and never checked against a primary source. Leads, not facts — confirm every line before writing it into a data file.

  • Public authorities are cited as required to receive EN 16931 e-invoices today.
  • A Digital Real-Time Reporting framework is described as in development from 2025.
  • A phased ViDA-aligned rollout is cited: large corporates from 2028, cross-border B2B from 2030, full domestic B2B from 2035.

Which catalogues a contributor would add​

Adding a country is data, not code. Adding a country is the procedure and the contract each file has to satisfy; this is only the shopping list for Malta.

  • country-policy/data/mt.json — which document actions Malta allows. Start here: without this file every action is refused with a 403, naming the country.
  • country-identifiers/data/mt.json — which national identifier a party must carry.
  • tax/tax-systems/data/mt.json and vat-rates/data/mt.json — the tax kind, and the rate ladder offered on an invoice line.
  • correction-routes/data/mt.json — all eleven canonical correction routes, unverified where unresearched, never omitted.
  • b2g-routing/data/mt.json — the channel and format a Maltese public buyer requires.
  • transports/channel-policy/data/mt.json — whether a channel is legally required of a seller established in Malta, and from what date.
  • archive/retention/data/mt.json — how long an archived document is kept, and what the duration is counted from.

Add mentions/, content-requirements/, country-fields/, reporting/ and domestic-reverse-charge/ only where the law actually gives them content.

Data alone will not finish the job here: the Peppol network is a transmission channel this repository does not implement, which is code, not a JSON file — see When a country needs more than a file.

Want Malta supported?​

Check the open compliance issues first. If there is no issue for Malta, open one and name which of the files above you need — a request that names one mechanism is far more actionable than "please add Malta".
