Free e-invoicing in the Netherlands
Few invoices and no wish to pay? There are free ways to send, and some to receive, Peppol e-invoices. The Dutch Peppol Authority notes that many service providers' invoice portals are often free, and that some packages send for free but charge for receiving [1]. Read the limits: free plans differ a lot.
Free options with Peppol
| Option | What's free | Limits |
|---|---|---|
| Jortt Starter | Invoicing with Peppol sending and receiving, "no time limit", no fee per invoice [2] | No bookkeeping, bank link or VAT return [2] |
| Odoo One App Free | One app (such as Invoicing) with unlimited users [3]; Odoo says Peppol registration is free and lists the Netherlands as eligible [4] | A second app moves you to a paid plan [3] |
| eConnect Factuurportaal | Sending Peppol invoices by hand, without a contract or fixed costs [5] | Sending only; receiving needs a paid plan; 2 users [5] |
| Peppyrus | Up to 100 outgoing messages a month with unlimited receiving, from 1 November 2026 [6] | Belgian service; its site doesn't say whether it takes Dutch companies [6] |
| Informer for ANBIs | Non-Profit Start at EUR 0 for public-benefit organisations (ANBI); Peppol registration is free for Informer users [7] | Only for ANBIs |
The Peppol Authority also lists service providers with a Peppol portal (such as Banqup, Billit, B2Brouter, Edicom, eConnect, Pagero and Tradeinterop) [10]; not every portal is free, so check the price.
Invoicing only the government?
The Leveranciersportaal of the Rijksoverheid is free for up to 10 e-invoices a month to central government. It can't receive and doesn't use Peppol [1]. You type the invoice in and need the order number from your client [11]. More: invoicing the government.
Cheap, if free isn't enough
- Moneybird Compact: EUR 3 a month, with Peppol sending and receiving on all plans; Compact includes 1 sales invoice, Start (EUR 15) is unlimited [8].
- Peppol Box: EUR 60 a year excl. btw for up to 100 documents a year, on a 12-month licence [9].
More plans side by side: e-invoicing prices.
Before you choose
- Do you need to receive? Between businesses nothing is mandatory yet; e-invoicing is planned from 1 July 2030. If you only invoice the Rijk, sending is enough. See who must e-invoice.
- One provider per number. Each Peppol ID (your KvK number or VAT ID) points to one provider's address book at a time [12]. If you move from a free plan to paid software later, the old provider has to release it first.
- Check the result. After registering, look up your own KvK number with our Peppol ID lookup.
