PeppolYes — consulting on Peppol for future B2B mandate
RTIR is not e-invoicing. The critical distinction: Hungary mandates real-time reporting of invoice data to NAV, not the exchange of structured e-invoices between parties. Your pipeline must report via the Online Számla API before delivering the invoice to the customer. The actual invoice can still be PDF. NAV XML 3.0 is mandatory from May 2025 — version 2.0 is discontinued.
