Have you switched to e-invoicing and would you like to receive future invoices as e-invoices? In the simple guide below, you can read how to start receiving e-invoices from the social security fund Securex.
Make things easier for yourself by automating part of the invoicing process by activating e-invoicing.
Just a reminder: e-invoices are not the same as digital invoices. A PDF is a digital invoice, but it is definitely not an e-invoice. Furthermore, all Belgian self-employed individuals will be required to work with e-invoices starting in 2026.
E-invoices are specific XML files sent in UBL format via the Peppol network. These UBL standards ensure that all necessary information is included on the invoice and that it is readable by accounting or invoicing software, such as Accountable.
💡 Accountable tip: You can use Accountable to receive and send e-invoices via the Peppol network, even in our free plan. Try Accountable now.
To activate e-invoicing via Peppol with Securex or other recurring suppliers, you need invoicing or accounting software. After that, you can register for Peppol. The registration is free and quick.
Here’s how to do it through Accountable:
It may take a few minutes for your activation to be processed. Not sure if it worked? Check if your company is listed in the Peppol Directory.
Once your registration is complete, you will automatically receive e-invoices from your social security fund and other suppliers that support e-invoicing. Your invoices will then automatically appear in the expenses screen in Accountable.

Super logiciel permettant de ce passer d'un comptable pour mon activité complémentaire.

Personnellement je ne suis pas très douée en compatibilité. J ai dû remettre ma déclaration fiscale pour le première fois depuis que je suis indépendante complémentaire. J ai essayé de comprendre par moi-même mais l aide des coaches fiscaux et surtout la petite vidéo m a été très utile ( j ai pu la visionner : mettre Pause et Play à ma guise ) Avoir une ou deux sessions personnalisée afin de corriger les petites erreurs d encodages ou pour acquérir les bons réflexes pour la suite de l utilisation d’ Accountable.

Appli très simple pour gérer sa comtabilité PRO : dépenses, factures, impôts. Le plus, c'est la reconnaissance automatique du contenu des scans/PDF.
