Poppel is a free toolbox for finding Peppol recipients. We provide live lookups through the SML (Service Metadata Locator), Peppol Directory search, and company registry lookups from official government sources. This makes it easy to find accurate, up-to-date information about participants in the Peppol and Nemhandel networks for electronic invoicing and document exchange.

How do I look up a Peppol participant?

Enter the participant ID in format ICD:value (e.g., 0192:123456789) in the search box above to instantly see their e-invoicing capabilities, supported document types, and access point information.

Is Poppel free to use?

Yes, Poppel is completely free to use for looking up Peppol participants and searching the directory.

What networks does Poppel support?

Poppel supports Peppol Production, Peppol Test, Nemhandel Production, and Nemhandel Demo networks for comprehensive e-invoicing participant discovery.

Peppol is a pan-European network for electronic invoicing and procurement. It enables businesses to exchange standardized e-invoices across borders using a common infrastructure.

How can I find a company's Peppol ID?

Use the Peppol Directory Search to search by company name. You can filter results by country to find registered Peppol participants and discover their Peppol IDs.

What is the difference between Peppol ID Lookup and Directory Search?

Peppol ID Lookup performs a true SML (Service Metadata Locator) lookup, which is the authoritative way to verify Peppol registrations. When you search for a Peppol ID, Poppel queries the SML in real-time to check if the participant exists and retrieves their current capabilities directly from their SMP (Service Metadata Provider). This gives you live, accurate results in milliseconds. Directory Search searches the Peppol Directory, which is a voluntary registry. Not all Peppol participants are listed there since registration is optional. Use Directory Search to find companies by name when you don't know their Peppol ID, but always verify with Peppol ID Lookup for the most accurate, up-to-date information.
