Veri*Factu Postponed to October 2028: What It Really Means for Your Business
The Ministry of Treasury has officially announced a delay in the implementation timeline for Veri*Factu, the regulation governing billing software to ensure internal record traceability and immutability.
The initial deadlines set for 2027 have been postponed, establishing October 2028 as the new official deadline for mandatory adoption. This adjustment does not cancel the regulation, but rather recalibrates its rollout schedule.
We break down the reasons behind this decision and what it implies for daily operations in hospitality, food retail, and commerce.
1. The Reason for the Delay: Alignment with B2B Electronic Invoicing
The main driver behind this extension is aligning Veri*Factu's timeline with the upcoming mandatory B2B Electronic Invoicing framework.
Tax authorities aim to prevent SMEs and freelancers from undergoing two separate software adaptations within a very short timeframe. Although they serve different purposes—Veri*Factu focuses on internal software traceability, while Electronic Invoicing targets commercial interoperability—unifying them in 2028 will allow for a single, organized technical transition.
2. Direct Impact on Daily Operations
This nearly two-year extension provides operational clarity for business planning:
-
No Immediate Technical Changes: Businesses can continue using their current POS systems and ERP software without making urgent modifications or incurring immediate technical expenses.
-
Time for a Planned Transition: Moving the deadline to late 2028 provides sufficient time to evaluate system requirements calmly and avoid last-minute rushes.
3. Continuous Software Adaptation
Regulatory updates are a standard part of business software maintenance. Relying on an IT solution that actively monitors legal changes ensures that point-of-sale equipment remains compliant whenever new mandates take effect.
