< Back to E-Invoicing Overview
Paraguay has introduced a structured e-invoicing system as part of its tax modernization efforts. The government has launched a phased approach to e-invoicing adoption, requiring businesses to register and issue electronic invoices in compliance with national tax standards.
E-invoicing is designed to simplify tax reporting, enhance transparency, and improve financial management for both public and private sector transactions. Businesses are required to validate invoices through the national tax system before issuing them to customers.
