Timeline
From 1 January 2025, every German VAT-registered business must be able to receive a structured e-invoice (XRechnung, PEPPOL BIS or ZUGFeRD). Issuing remains optional for a transitional period.
From 1 January 2027, businesses with prior-year turnover above €800,000 must issue structured e-invoices. From 1 January 2028, the obligation extends to all businesses.
For federal public-sector buyers (ZRE / OZG-RE), XRechnung has been mandatory since 27 November 2020.
XRechnung format
XRechnung is a German CIUS (Core Invoice Usage Specification) of EN 16931 in UBL or UN/CEFACT CII syntax. The CustomizationID identifies the XRechnung profile version (3.0 at time of writing).
The Leitweg-ID is a structured routing identifier for the buyer's public-sector unit and is mandatory for B2G. Eurobillr places it in the BuyerReference (BT-10) field automatically when the workspace is set up for federal Germany.
Cómo lo gestiona Eurobillr
- XRechnung 3.0 builder with the right CustomizationID and ProfileID.
- Leitweg-ID injected into BuyerReference for ZRE / OZG-RE delivery.
- PEPPOL BIS fallback for B2B partners reachable on PEPPOL.
- Inbound capture of structured invoices from German suppliers.
