Description

Do you have customers in public administration? These may be governmental agencies, ministries, municipalities. Or do you have customers who require you to bill with electronic invoices? If so, it’s high time to move your invoicing over to a simple yet secure, legally-conform e-invoicing solution to support invoice formats such as a XRechnung and ZUGFeRD. Particularly as, from 2th November 2020, German public administration has only been accepting e-invoices in XRechnung for any sums over €1,000.
