E-Invoicing Built for Consulting & Professional Services

Affordable, simple e-invoicing that doesn't require a compliance team — designed for firms that bill by the hour and serve clients across borders.

Professional services firms — from management consultancies and law firms to accounting practices and IT service providers — are increasingly required to send and receive structured electronic invoices. Government clients in the EU already mandate Peppol-based e-invoicing under Directive 2014/55/EU, and B2B mandates are expanding rapidly: Belgium from January 2026, France, Germany, and Spain following shortly.

Yet most professional services firms lack the technical resources to implement and maintain e-invoicing compliance. InvoStaq bridges that gap with an affordable, intuitive platform that handles the complexity behind the scenes — so consultants can focus on clients, not XML schemas.

Pain Points

Key Challenges for Professional Services Firms

Why e-invoicing is particularly difficult for service-based businesses.

Time-Based Billing Complexity

Professional services firms bill by the hour, project milestone, or retainer — generating invoices with varying line items, currencies, and tax treatments. Translating these into compliant structured e-invoices (UBL/CII) requires format expertise most small firms lack.

Multi-Jurisdiction Clients

A consulting firm serving clients in Germany, the Netherlands, and Saudi Arabia must comply with XRechnung, Peppol NL, and ZATCA respectively — all with different technical formats, tax rules, and submission channels. Managing this without dedicated compliance staff is unsustainable.

Small Teams Without Dedicated Compliance Staff

Most professional services firms have fewer than 50 employees and no in-house tax technology specialist. When e-invoicing mandates arrive — like France's Factur-X obligation or Belgium's B2B mandate from 2026 — these firms are often unprepared and overwhelmed.

Client Mandate Requirements

Increasingly, enterprise and government clients require suppliers to submit invoices via Peppol or other structured electronic formats. Professional services firms that cannot comply risk losing contracts or facing payment delays.
