Proposed EU Late Payment Regulation: 30-day maximum payment terms in B2B transactions

Placeholder – no application date exists. Commission proposal COM(2023) 533 remains open: Parliament adopted its position in April 2024, but the file is classified 'Blocked' by the European Parliament's Legislative Train Schedule (no Council progress for 9+ months, as of Aug 2026) and 'Ongoing' by the EUR-Lex procedure tracker — not withdrawn, despite some secondary sources claiming so. Existing Directive 2011/7/EU (60-day default) continues to apply.

All businesses, especially SMEs supplying larger customers on long payment terms.
