How can I send an e-invoice with Mollie Invoicing?

You can send e-invoices directly from your Mollie Dashboard using Mollie Invoicing. An e-invoice is a structured XML invoice delivered through the secure European Peppol network, so your customer receives it straight in their accounting system.

What you need to know in advance

  • Availability: E-invoicing is currently supported only for senders and recipients in the Netherlands, Belgium, and Germany. You can send an e-invoice only if your business is based in NL/BE/DE and your customer is also based in NL/BE/DE.
  • Your registration: When you toggle on E-invoicing in your Mollie Dashboard, your business will automatically be registered as a sender in the Peppol network.
  • Peppol registration: Mollie automatically checks whether your customer’s VAT number or company number is registered on Peppol.
    • If the customer isn’t on Peppol: You cannot send them an e-invoice. Inform them they’ll need to register on Peppol to receive e-invoices. You can still send a standard PDF invoice by email.

Enable e-invoicing

  1. Log in to your Mollie Dashboard.
  2. Go to Settings > Invoicing.
  3. Toggle E-invoicing on.
  4. Click Save.
