Starting November 1the adoption of this measure by commercial establishments will be mandatory. This implies that receipts and some equivalent documents will have to be issued digitally.
From Siigo, a platform dedicated to this type of billing, it has been explained that “It must be kept in mind that, if the business is among those selected by the Dian, it can choose what mechanism or software to use to invoice electronically and comply with what is established by law.”
