Is e-invoicing mandatory for Singapore restaurants?
Direct answer · updated
By 2026, GST-registered Singapore businesses are inside the InvoiceNow (Peppol) regime, phased in from May 2025 for new registrants and November 2025 for existing ones. LOOP does not transmit InvoiceNow (Peppol) invoices today, support is on the roadmap, and Singapore outlets export their LOOP sales records to their existing provider. Confirm your own phase date with IRAS.
InvoiceNow (Peppol) becomes mandatory for GST-registered businesses from May 2025 (new) and Nov 2025 (existing). LOOP does not transmit InvoiceNow (Peppol) invoices today, support is on the roadmap. Singapore outlets export their LOOP sales records to their existing provider.
How it works with LOOP
LOOP issues GST-compliant tax invoices and credit notes from the ticket screen and keeps the audit trail with the order, so a Singapore operator is ready if InvoiceNow obligations widen. Corporate guests get a proper tax invoice at the table rather than a request to email accounts later, and the monthly GST summary comes out of the same data the P&L uses.
Key facts
- InvoiceNow mandatory from 2025
