Sweden
E-invoicing is well established in Sweden, with broad adoption across both public and private sectors. While a B2B e-invoicing mandate is not yet in place, it is mandatory for suppliers to the Swedish public sector. Ongoing discussions and the EU’s VAT in the Digital Age (ViDA) initiative are expected to shape upcoming regulatory changes.
On the consumer side, Sweden is preparing to launch a “Ja tack till e-faktura” (Yes to All) register in 2025, allowing consumers to opt-in to receive all invoices electronically, similar to Norway’s national model.

Sending in Sweden
Supported delivery channels in Sweden
In Sweden, invoice delivery is currently supported in the following order: Maventa’s internal network, Peppol, the Swedish operator network, and InExchange for selected operators. If electronic delivery is not possible, email and print serve as fallback options. For consumer invoicing, Maventa enables delivery to Swedish consumers via online banks, digital mail solutions such as Kivra and Billo, as well as through email or print.
InExchange network
Maventa partners with InExchange to reach Swedish operators where we lack a direct connection. The primary format used is Peppol BIS Billing 3.0., Svefaktura is a fallback when the Peppol BIS format is not valid in sending.
Receiving in Sweden
In Sweden, companies can receive invoices through several channels. If a company has activated e-invoice receiving, they can receive invoices via Maventa’s internal network, the Swedish operator network, and InExchange. Additionally, if the company is registered with Peppol, Peppol receiving is available. Companies with the scanning service activated can also receive scanned invoices.
NEA registry
The NEA registry (Nationella Elektroniska Adressregistret) is the National Electronic Address Registry in Sweden. It is a central database that stores information about Swedish companies’ electronic invoice addresses and other identifiers used for routing e-invoices within Sweden.
Maventa registers all Swedish companies to NEA using BID as the e-invoicing address, in addition to the Peppol address if company has registered themselves to receive also through Peppol network.
We recommend registering all Swedish customers as Peppol receivers. when registered in Peppol, customers receive a standard Peppol e-invoice address.
For Swedish companies, Maventa automatically assigns two e-invoice receiving addresses when company activates e-invoice receiving:
| Address Type | Description | Example address | Activation Requirement | 
|---|---|---|---|
| 752-prefixed address | Internal routing identifier used also still for InExchange. Not an official ID. | 752551111111101 | Created automatically when e-invoice receiving is activate for Maventa account | 
| BID (Business Identifier) | Official identifier used in the Swedish operator network. Registered in the NEA registry. | 5511111111 | Created automatically when e-invoice receiving is activate for Maventa account | 
| Peppol address | Official identifier for the Peppol network. Registered in the NEA registry. | 0007:5511111111 | Created when company registers themselves to receive also from Peppol | 
e-invoicing formats used in Sweden
Sweden has its own national invoice format, Svefaktura, alongside the Peppol BIS Billing 3.0 format. The latest version of Svefaktura has been aligned with Peppol BIS, signaling a clear move toward harmonization. The Swedish government actively encourages Peppol adoption, and usage continues to grow steadily.
