Migrating your Peppol Services to VATify

You are Coming from Another Peppol Provider, What Do You Need to Do?

If you are changing your PEPPOL service provider to Marosa, you do not need to re-register your company in the Peppol network. However, your Service Metadata Publisher (SMP) records must be updated correctly to ensure uninterrupted document exchange .

This guide explains the practical steps you need to follow to complete a smooth migration.

Before you start

Each Peppol participant is identified by a Participant ID, made up of:

• An identifier scheme (e.g. 0088 for a national company number)
• An identifier value (your company’s registration or VAT number)

Example: 0088:123456789

Your Participant ID will remain the same when moving to VATify.

Step 1 – Identify your migration scenario

There are two possible scenarios:

• Scenario A – Same SMP, new service provider: Only the Access Point and certificates change. The SMP itself remains the same .
• Scenario B – New SMP and new service provider: Both the SMP and the service provider change. This requires coordination with the Peppol Service Metadata Locator (SML) .

If you are unsure which scenario applies, contact Marosa before proceeding.

Step 2 – Request the migration code (if changing SMP)

If you are moving to a new SMP:

1. Contact your current Peppol service provider.
2. Request the migration code for your Participant ID.
3. Share this migration code securely with Marosa.

The migration is initiated by the new SMP, Marosa, using this code.

Step 3 – Recreate and validate your Service Group

Your Service Group must be correctly configured in the new SMP before go-live.

Marosa will ensure:

• Your existing document types and process identifiers are maintained
• Your Access Point endpoints are updated
• New transport certificates are correctly published

Step 4 – Confirm SML update

If your SMP changes:

• Marosa will notify the SML of the migration.
• The SML will update the link between your Participant ID and the new SMP .

This ensures other PEPPOL participants can continue to discover your details. 

Key points to remember

• Your Participant ID does not change
• Migration requires coordination between SMPs and, in some cases, the SML

If you require assistance at any stage, contact the MAROSA support team for guidance before proceeding.
