Electronic Invoicing Russia
While electronic invoicing is currently not mandatory in Russia, companies have been able to use it voluntarily since 2012. This requires an agreement between the issuer and the recipient.
However, the Russian Tax Authority (TA) is committed to making digital invoicing mandatory in the future.
Since January 2017, it has been made mandatory in Russia to provide e-accounting data, thus allowing tax authorities to cross-check data between taxpayers. This includes the requirement to provide scanned and digitally signed invoices.
Russia is ambitious in its approach to digital transformation and regulation of the document management market, and it’s clear that the country is driving towards an e-invoicing model. The tax authorities wants to build a national track and trace system. By the end of 2024, Russia aims to have 95% of invoices and 70% of transport and goods waybills issued in electronic form.
Business-to-Business (B2B) e-invoicing remains voluntary, except for taxpayers that are part of the traceability system that prescribes e-invoice issuance for certain types of goods. This came into force July 2021, with the aim of monitoring trade within the territory of the Eurasian Economic Union (EAEU).
Current requirements for electronic invoicing include:
- Having a registered service provider for the transmission of documents
- Integrating with the Russian tax authority through the exchange of different ACKs (notification for successful provider change)
- Agreements to use e-invoicing between both parties
- Ensuring the necessary technical equipment is used
- Requiring digital signatures
Electronic invoices must be created in a structured XML file that is standardised and maintained by the Russian tax authority.

Our advice
Our recommendation for e-invoicing in Russia is to set up a Basware solution that coordinates with local partners in conjunction with paper handling through our Scan & Capture or CloudScan products. This enables customers to move away from receiving data from paper invoices into their system.
