Is VERI*FACTU mandatory for every business in Spain?
The invoicing-software rules apply to defined taxpayers and operations, with exclusions. VERI*FACTU is one permitted operating mode; a compliant non-VERI*FACTU mode is also provided for. We check the scope with your tax adviser, including SII participation and the relevant foral tax regime, before recommending a solution.
Read the official guidanceIs adding a QR code enough to comply?
No. The QR is one part of the invoice requirements. The system must also meet the applicable record-generation, integrity and traceability rules. In VERI*FACTU mode it sends invoice records to AEAT. Scanning the QR is a customer verification mechanism, not the issuer’s submission process. Structured electronic invoices carry the required URL content instead of a printed QR image.
Read the official guidanceIs this the same as mandatory B2B electronic invoicing?
No. Spain’s business-to-business electronic invoicing framework, developed by Royal Decree 238/2026, is distinct from the SIF/VERI*FACTU rules. A VERI*FACTU integration does not by itself cover all electronic invoice exchange obligations. We identify any additional formats, exchange services and requirements as a separate part of the project.
Read the official guidanceWill the software be approved or certified by AEAT?
AEAT does not require prior product registration or independent certification for this purpose. The producer certifies the software through a declaración responsable for the relevant version. We define the producer’s responsibility for the delivered system and any third-party components, and provide the required documentation. This is not an AEAT endorsement.
Read the official guidanceCan you adapt our existing billing software?
Yes, where the existing software and access rights make a sound integration possible. We first review the source or available interfaces, invoice workflows and producer documentation. We then recommend a targeted adaptation, a compliant billing component, or a replacement, with a clear scope and ownership of responsibilities.
What happens if a submission fails or the connection drops?
We build visible pending and error states, controlled retries and an exception workflow. AEAT guidance provides for continued invoicing and later submission during transmission incidents. The implementation must distinguish a transport problem from a rejected record and preserve the information needed to resolve it.
Read the official guidanceHow much does a custom billing project cost?
We quote after reviewing your billing process, invoice volume, integrations and support needs. Your proposal separates discovery, implementation, migration, hosting, any third-party fees and ongoing maintenance. A standard product may be more suitable for straightforward invoicing; custom development is most useful when the workflow or integration requirements justify it.
Does VERI*FACTU replace our accountant or tax returns?
No. Invoice-record submission does not remove your separate bookkeeping and tax-filing obligations. We handle the agreed software implementation and work with your accountant or gestor on the business’s tax treatment and reporting needs.
