United States
Voluntary, no mandate yet
Mandate Overview
The mandate
The United States has no federal e-invoicing mandate. The Digital Business Networks Alliance (DBNAlliance) operates the U.S. Open Exchange Network, a voluntary Peppol-aligned exchange framework launched as the North American counterpart to the European Peppol network, with participants connecting on a "connect once, connect to all" basis. State-level retail and payroll-tax reporting requirements exist independently, but no federal CTC mandate is currently in legislation.
