Frequently Asked Questions

What is a ZUGFeRD invoice?

ZUGFeRD is a hybrid invoice format that combines a human-readable PDF with embedded structured XML data. It allows both manual review and automated processing of the same invoice file.

Which ZUGFeRD version do you support?

We support ZUGFeRD 2.4, which is fully compatible with XRechnung and European standard EN 16931. This ensures maximum compatibility across German and European systems.

Can recipients without special software read ZUGFeRD?

Yes! ZUGFeRD invoices appear as normal PDFs in any PDF reader. The embedded XML data is only accessed by specialized accounting software when needed.
