Japan has developed its own PINT Japan specification for e-invoicing via the Peppol network. The Digital Agency acts as Peppol Authority and promotes e-invoicing as part of its broader digitalization agenda. Adoption is still in an early phase compared to Europe, but growing steadily.

PINT Japan is the Japanese variant of the Peppol International Invoice, based on EN 16931 with adaptations for the Japanese tax system. The specification is managed by the Digital Agency and optimized for Japanese invoicing practices.

If you invoice companies in Japan, Peppol offers a growing route for e-invoice exchange. The eConnect PSB supports PINT Japan and automatically routes invoices to Japanese recipients. The transformation from your existing invoice format to PINT Japan is handled automatically.
