Your shop will have to invoice differently
If you sell online and issue invoices from your own site, there is a date after which doing it the way you do now stops being valid. This is not rebuilding the site. It is connecting it to software that complies.
Who it applies to, and when
- Companies (SL, SA)
- 1 January 2027
- Sole traders and professionals
- 1 July 2027
The date depends on your legal form, not on your size. On 5 October 2026 the tax agency announced it wants to postpone it to October 2028, but until that is in the BOE (the official gazette), these are the dates that count.
What changes exactly
- Every invoice has to come out of software that records it as it is issued and does not let you delete it afterwards.
- The invoice carries a tax QR code and, if the software sends the records to the tax agency, the phrase "Factura verificable en la sede electrónica de la AEAT" (invoice verifiable on the tax agency's website).
- The records are chained together, so a missing one shows.
- Optionally the software sends each record to the tax office as it happens. That is what "Veri*factu" refers to.
Why this is yours and not only your accountant's
If you invoice through management software, your accountant or that software will already be handling it. The problem is a different one: if your online shop issues invoices on its own, those invoices come out of your website, and your website does not comply by itself. That is where I come in.
What I do
- I look at how you issue invoices today and tell you whether this applies to you. If it does not, I say so and that is that.
- I connect your shop (WooCommerce, PrestaShop, Shopify or custom-built) to an invoicing system that complies.
- I check the invoices come out right, with their QR and their record, before leaving it running.
- I write down what was done, so your accountant has it.
What it costs
From €370
+ VAT (€447.70 incl. VAT). Fixed price agreed before starting, depending on your platform and how your invoicing is set up. The first review costs nothing.
What I am not
I am not a tax adviser. What I do is the technical part: leaving your site issuing compliant invoices. What you have to declare and how is your accountant's job, and the best outcome is the three of us talking.
