Check e-invoicing readiness
Whether a company can be sent an electronic invoice over the Peppol network, together with the VAT standing that decides whether it must issue one.
From 1 January 2027 (zákon č. 385/2025 Z. z., § 76a zákona o DPH) a Slovak VAT payer may not issue a paper or PDF invoice to another business: the invoice must be structured XML delivered over Peppol. Every taxable person with a DIČ — including non-VAT payers, živnostníci and landlords — must be able to receive one.
The network addresses a Slovak participant as 0245:<DIČ>, never by IČO. This endpoint takes the IČO you already hold and does that translation for you.
The answer is evidence, not a verdict. on_network says the Service Metadata Locator resolves; can_receive_invoice says the participant's SMP actually advertises Peppol BIS Billing 3.0, which is a different and stricter thing. checked is false when the question could not be asked at all — no DIČ on file, or a lookup that did not complete — and that is deliberately distinct from a company genuinely being absent.
note carries the cases that would otherwise mislead, most importantly a company registered under a scheme other than 0245: it is on the network, and an invoice addressed the way the mandate specifies will still not reach it.
Resolution is against the SML directly rather than the public Peppol Directory. Directory listing is opt-in, so a Directory-backed answer reports registered companies as absent.
This is what the network said when we asked, not a delivery guarantee. peppol.checked_at is when that was; a participant can register, move to another access point or leave at any time after it, and whether a particular invoice arrives is decided by the sender's and the receiver's access points, not by this answer. The vat half is the same extract of the Financial Administration's public lists as GET /vat/verify and carries the same caveat: it is not a confirmation issued by the Financial Administration.
