PeppolYes — Peppol accepted alongside ebInterface
ebInterface vs Peppol. Austria accepts both ebInterface 6.0 (national standard) and Peppol BIS Billing 3.0 for B2G. The ebInterface format is EN 16931 aligned but has Austrian-specific extensions. If you're building for multiple markets, Peppol BIS 3.0 is the safer choice. B2G invoices are submitted via the USP (Unternehmensserviceportal). Digital signatures are optional but recommended.
