Spain E-Invoicing & Verifactu Integration

• Verifactu: businesses and self-employed people using invoicing software, other than those in SII or under Basque/Navarre regional regimes.
• SII: large companies (by turnover), VAT groups and those registered for monthly VAT refunds, plus voluntary registrants.
• TicketBAI / Batuz: businesses under Basque provincial tax jurisdiction.
• FACe: suppliers invoicing Spanish public administrations.
• B2B e-invoicing (Crea y Crece): businesses and professionals invoicing each other, phased by company size once in force.

Timelines have changed more than once. Use the AEAT website for the current dates.

Spain's approach has layers. Verifactu and SII are about recording and reporting invoice data to the tax agency: Verifactu through certified-behaviour billing software (with optional real-time submission), SII through near-real-time reporting for larger companies. On top of that, B2B e-invoicing requires invoices exchanged between businesses to be structured electronic documents, with payment-status information. FACe handles invoices to the public sector.

• Invoice records (registro de facturación) with hash chaining, electronic signature and event logs.
• QR code on every invoice, linking to AEAT verification, with the "VERI*FACTU" mention where records are sent in real time.
• SII XML submissions via AEAT web services for in-scope companies.
• Facturae XML (signed) for B2G through FACe.
• Structured B2B formats permitted by the B2B regulation, such as Facturae, UBL, CII or EDIFACT.

We add a compliance layer beside your ERP or POS. It creates the signed, chained invoice records and QR codes, submits them to AEAT or SII as required, generates Facturae or other structured invoices, and writes status back to the ERP. One platform can also produce French, German and Peppol outputs for multi-country groups.
