The Paper Invoice Era Ends in 2026: Every Invoice, Whatever the Amount, Becomes an e-Archive Invoice!

The Change Introduced by General Communique 573 on the Tax Procedure Law
This fundamental transformation was announced with the General Communique on the Tax Procedure Law (Serial No: 573). According to the communique, the 3,000 TL e-Archive invoice limit that is still in force during 2025 is completely abolished as of 2026. From now on, businesses must document all their sales electronically, regardless of the invoice amount.
Transition in 2025, Requirement in 2026
The transition period will continue throughout 2025. During this time, e-Archive is mandatory only for transactions of 3,000 TL and above. However, from 1 January 2026, this amount limit will be removed entirely. Even a sale of 10 TL will have to be documented with an e-Archive Invoice.
This change will both make it easier to record commercial activities and speed up the Revenue Administration's digital audit processes.
What Does the End of the Paper Invoice Mean?
With this regulation:
- Operations such as printing, archiving and sending paper invoices will become a thing of the past.
- All invoice processes will take place in a digital environment.
- Access to invoices, auditing and reporting will become much faster and more secure.
- Companies' operational costs will decrease and environmental sustainability will be supported.
What Should Businesses Do?
To be ready by 2026, it is very important for businesses to take steps now. Here is the roadmap we recommend:
- Follow the Legislation: Keep track of up-to-date information on e-Archive regulations.
- Prepare Your Software Infrastructure: Get your ERP or accounting system ready for e-Archive integration.
- Train Your Staff: Make sure invoicing processes are carried out in line with the digital environment.
- Start the Testing Process: Test the necessary systems in a trial environment before January 2026.
