What is a digital invoice?
A digital invoice (e-invoice) is a PDF file containing both the visual invoice and structured XML data according to standards like ZUGFeRD or Factur-X.
From 2025 (Germany) and 2028 (EU), electronic invoices will become mandatory for B2B transactions. Digital invoices make automated processing, archiving, and compliance much easier.
Benefits: Less manual work, fewer errors, and legal compliance.
