How ClearTax supports E-invoicing & E-reporting

End‑to‑end Germany mandate coverage

B2B e‑invoicing for Germany, aligned to EN16931 formats like XRechnung and ZUGFeRD, with 10 years e‑archive and B2G requirements covered via federal and state portals or Peppol connections.​ Supports the phased mandate from 2025–2028.

24x7 support & technical assistance

Dedicated success managers, 24x7 technical and functional support, and in‑house tax experts to interpret Germany changes and translate them into product updates.​

FAQs

How much does an e-Invoicing program cost?

Costs vary by volume and complexity: basic tools may be low-cost per month, while enterprise solutions add setup/integration and per-invoice fees. Budget for ERP integration, validation, archiving (10 years), support, and change management.

Can I create an e-Invoice using Excel?

Not reliably. Excel can store invoice data, but Germany requires structured e-invoice formats (EN 16931-compliant XML/hybrid). You’d still need software/middleware to convert Excel data into XRechnung/ZUGFeRD and validate it.

What is the format for e-Invoice in Germany?

Germany’s common formats are XRechnung (structured XML) and ZUGFeRD (PDF with embedded EN 16931 XML). The invoice must be machine-readable and compliant with the European standard EN 16931.

What software do I need for e-Invoicing in Germany?

You need software that can generate, send, receive, validate, and archive EN 16931-compliant invoices (XRechnung/ZUGFeRD). This can be your ERP’s e-invoicing capability or a third-party e-invoicing provider integrated with ERP/accounting.

What are the advantages of using e-Invoicing software?

It reduces manual entry, errors, and processing time; improves audit trails; supports automated matching and approvals; speeds dispute resolution; and ensures compliance. It also centralizes monitoring and helps meet archiving and reporting needs efficiently.

What should companies do that are currently working without an e-Invoicing program?

Start now: map invoice flows, confirm which B2B invoices are in scope, ensure “receive” readiness, select a solution/provider, integrate with ERP/accounting, set validation/archiving, train teams, and pilot with key suppliers/customers.

Does the e-Invoicing requirement also apply to small businesses?

Yes, mainly for B2B. All businesses must be able to receive e-invoices from Jan 1, 2025; issuing becomes mandatory for everyone by Jan 1, 2028. Some exemptions exist (e.g., low-value invoices).

Which program can I use to receive e-Invoices?

Any system that can accept and process EN 16931 invoices: ERP/AP automation, accounting software with e-invoice import, or an e-invoicing provider portal. Many companies use a provider to validate, route, and archive invoices centrally.

API connectivity, support for mandated formats, interoperability with the national directory (Annuaire), adherence to validation schemas and security protocols, and capability to transmit e-reporting data.

Yes. ClearTax supports high-volume automation, batch uploads or APIs, parallel processing and robust monitoring for thousands to millions of invoices.
