CEN/TC 434 (CEN Technical Committee 434) is a technical body within the European Committee for Standardization (CEN) developing standards in the field of Electronic Invoicing.[1][2]

Overview

CEN/TC 434 has developed the European Standard on Electronic Invicing (EN 16931–1) and other ancillary standardization deliverables[3] required by the European Directive 2014/55/EU.[4]

Directive 2014/55/EU also required:

  • the test of the standard as to its practical application for an end user,
  • a report on the outcome of the test to the European Parliament and the Council[5] by the European Commission and, after the publication and the test of the standard,
  • the publication in the Official Journal of the European Union of a reference to the European Standard together with the list of a limited number of syntaxes[6] (that CEN published as TS 16931-2).

Workgroups

CEN/TC 434 has the following working groups (WGs):

  • CEN/TC 434/WG 1 Core semantic data model
  • CEN/TC 434/WG 3 Syntax bindings
  • CEN/TC 434/WG 4 Guidelines at transmission level
  • CEN/TC 434/WG 5 Extension methodology
  • CEN/TC 434/WG 6 Test methodology and test results
  • CEN/TC 434/WG 7 Registry Services

CEN/TC 434/WG 2 (List of syntaxes) was disbanded.
