Not every business is on Peppol yet. Sending to a company that is not registered will fail, so a quick lookup before you send saves you the trouble. Here is how to check, and what your options are when the recipient is not reachable.
- 1
Find the recipient's identifier
You need either the recipient's Peppol participant identifier or their VAT number. Most of the time the VAT number is enough, because Invoro can derive the Peppol identifier from it.
- 2
Run the network lookup
Open Invoro's participant lookup, paste the VAT number or Peppol ID, and search. Invoro queries the network directory in real time and returns whether the business is registered.

Read the result
A registered participant shows the document types they accept, such as invoices and credit notes. If invoices are listed, you are clear to send. If the business is not found, they are not yet on Peppol.

Handle a missing recipient
If the recipient is not on Peppol, you can still deliver the invoice as a PDF by email through Invoro, and invite them to register so future invoices flow over the network automatically.
