- Spain mandates B2B electronic invoicing for companies and professionals under the Crea y Crece Law, effective from March 24, 2026.
- Invoices must be structured, machine-readable formats (e.g., FacturaE, UBL, CII, EDIFACT), with status reporting to address late payments.
- Companies with over €8 million turnover must comply within one year; others within two years after the technical order is published (expected before July 1, 2026).
- The system uses a five-corner model with private or public platforms, ensuring interoperability and traceability, in line with the EU’s ViDA initiative.
- For the first year, issuers must also provide a PDF copy for recipients not yet required to use structured invoices.
