Spain is moving to mandatory e-invoicing between businesses and self-employed workers (the Crea y Crece law) and to verifiable invoicing systems (Verifactu). Here is what that means and where the paper you still receive fits in.
The law requires invoices between businesses and self-employed workers to be issued and received in a structured electronic format, phased in by company size. The dates depend on implementing regulations, so confirm them with your accountant.
Verifactu requires invoicing software to guarantee the integrity and traceability of records and to be able to send them to the Spanish tax agency. It affects the software you invoice with, not how you receive your mail.
During the transition you will still receive invoices, notices and documents on paper. Spanish Mailbox scans them, extracts the data and delivers them digitally so your whole incoming flow lives in one place.
No, we are not invoicing software. We digitise the mail and paper invoices you receive.
The timeline has been postponed several times and depends on company size. Check the official Spanish tax agency information or ask your accountant.
No monthly fee: €4 per scanned letter, €20 per parcel received and €35 for very heavy parcels one person cannot carry alone. If we forward something, you also pay the actual shipping cost.
