What is e-Invoicing?

Electronic invoicing adoption is expanding rapidly across jurisdictions worldwide. Instead of sending PDF invoices by email, e-invoicing uses structured data formats that can be automatically processed by accounting systems on both ends of a transaction.

Invoice Ninja supports the UBL (Universal Business Language) format and various electronic invoice standards, including Factur-X for France. Our platform enables direct invoice delivery through the PEPPOL network, ensuring your invoices reach their recipients in a compliant, machine-readable format.

All Enterprise Plan subscribers automatically receive 250 e-invoicing credits at no additional cost.

Factur-X for France

Factur-X is the French implementation of the European e-invoicing standard. It combines a human-readable PDF invoice with embedded structured XML data, making it compatible with both manual review and automated processing.

Invoice Ninja generates fully compliant Factur-X invoices that meet French regulatory requirements. As France moves toward mandatory e-invoicing for all B2B transactions, having Factur-X support built into your invoicing workflow ensures you are ready for compliance.

Invoice Ninja handles the technical complexity so you can focus on your business -- simply create your invoice and we generate the compliant Factur-X output automatically.

The PEPPOL Network

Invoice Ninja has deployed a PEPPOL access point, enabling you to send and receive e-invoices across a vast international network.

PEPPOL is like working with a telecommunications provider. When you make a phone call, you just dial the number and your provider works with the recipient's provider to establish the connection. You don't need to worry about the technical details -- it just works.

PEPPOL functions as an extremely secure international network that allows your company to exchange critical business documents electronically with any registered participant -- currently hundreds of thousands of public and private companies across borders.
