Peppol Releases English Translation of
KOSIT’s Central Settlement Guide

KOSIT, acting as the Peppol Authority for Germany, has officially released version 1.0 of its recommendation for Central Settlement (ZR) processing. In a strategic move to support cross-border interoperability, Peppol has now provided an official English translation of these German standards.

  • Official Release: The document, finalized on March 18, 2026, provides a unified framework for handling central settlement via the Peppol Interoperability Framework (PIF).
  • Global Reach: By translating the “Zentralregulierung” concepts, Peppol enables international service providers to implement German settlement workflows consistently without language barriers.
  • Standardized Tagging: The guide mandates specific technical markers, such as using the BT-10 (Buyer Reference) field for ZR identification and BT-81 for signaling settlement-based payment means.
  • Operational Efficiency: This joint effort between KOSIT and Peppol aims to reduce entry barriers and operational complexity for all participants in the electronic invoicing ecosystem.
