AU & PEPPOL
Australia’s e-Invoicing ecosystem is built on the PEPPOL framework, a secure, interoperable network that enables structured invoice exchange between supplier and buyer systems. The Australian Government uses PEPPOL to support safe, standardised e-Invoicing and improve processing efficiency.
Cygnet.One is a PEPPOL-accredited Service Provider (Access Point + SMP), helping enterprises connect once and transact across PEPPOL jurisdictions including Australia—through a scalable, integration-first architecture.
Australia’s PEPPOL ecosystem uses A-NZ Peppol BIS Billing 3.0 specifications and is transitioning with updates aligned to PINT A-NZ. Recent releases and effective dates have been communicated as part of the AU/NZ PEPPOL transition path.
Australia and New Zealand also collaborate to maintain an interoperable Trans-Tasman approach for e-Invoicing adoption and governance. Visit New Zealand details here!

How Cygnet.One enables Australia e-Invoicing
without breaking ERP or finance ops
Connect e-Invoicing to your existing landscape (ERP, finance systems, AP automation, AR billing, vendor portals) with minimal disruption, built for high volume and multi-entity operations.
Use a PEPPOL-accredited service provider capability to send/receive e-Invoices and publish/resolve participant capabilities through SMP, so trading partner discovery and routing works reliably.
Structured invoice validations, schema conformance, identifier rules, and audit-friendly logs—supporting finance, tax, and IT controls in one flow. (Also aligns well with enterprise audit cycles.)
Design for AU today, keep the architecture ready for NZ interoperability and evolving AU/NZ specifications.
If you’re running multi-jurisdiction invoicing, standardise the core integration and switch country rule packs as mandates evolve.
