Frequently Asked Questions

UBL or CII: what is the difference?

Both are valid XRechnung syntaxes with the same content. Use the syntax your recipient names. Without a requirement, UBL through PDF to XRechnung is a good choice.

When do I need ZUGFeRD instead?

When your customer wants a readable PDF with embedded XML. Then use PDF to ZUGFeRD.

Do you send the XRechnung to the public body?

No. We create and check the file; you submit it through the channel the contracting authority names.
