Regardless of of how you write an eInvoice or e-invoice, what is important to us is that you can create and send your eInvoices in a very simple and intuitive way, all without additional costs.
But what exactly is eInvoice?
eInvoice is an electronic form of invoice that is sent and received in digital format, specifically in XML format. The main reason for using eInvoices in Croatia and elsewhere is to improve efficiency, reduce administrative costs and promote sustainable practices.
What are the advantages of sending an eInvoice?
- Automation of processes: eInvoices are often integrated into business systems and financial management software, which enables automation of the invoice processing process. This can significantly improve efficiency and reduce the risk of human error.
- Increased security: eInvoices are sent through secure electronic channels and eInvoice systems, reducing the risk of data loss or manipulation.
- Tracking the delivery status: With eInvoice, you can monitor the process of delivery and receipt of the eInvoice at any time, which enables confirmation of successful delivery.
Do you have to send an eInvoice?
In Croatia, the use of eInvoices has become mandatory for public bodies (public sector) since the year 2018. In other words, an eInvoice must be sent for delivered products or services related to state / state-owned companies or users of the state budget. This obligation was established to improve transparency and efficiency in public finances.
The introduction of the obligation to use eInvoices in the B2B (business-to-business) sector may vary from country to country and depends on the regulatory environment. In Croatia, such an obligation is expected starting with 2026. More on the website of the tax administration: Project Fiscalization 2.0.
