e-Invoicing in Peru
CPEElectronic Payment Receipt
The electronic invoice in Peru is known as the CPE (Electronic Payment Receipt). Companies using this system must adopt certain technical requirements for issuers and recipients, such as online communication with the SUNAT (National Tax and Customs Administration). Gradual phased implementation of e-Invoicing began in January 2015, with the last group of taxpayers scheduled to join by July 2017.
