Spain’s Agencia Estatal de Administración Tributaria (AEAT) has announced a new technical webinar dedicated to the Solución Pública de Facturación Electrónica (SPFE) — the free, state-run public platform at the heart of Spain’s mandatory B2B e-invoicing regime under the Crea y Crece law. The notice appears on the AEAT Desarrolladores (developers) portal, under Reuniones – Ejercicio 2026. [vatupdate.com]
The webinar,“Actualización sobre la Solución Pública de Facturación Electrónica (SPFE)”, is scheduled for 10 September 2026 at 10:00h and is expected to run for approximately 1 hour 15 minutes. Attendance requires prior registration via a Zoom form; after completing a few minimal registration fields, participants receive the joining details at the email address supplied. AEAT stresses the importance of correctly identifying the participating entity so that questions can be properly registered, and asks attendees to submit questions per intervention using Zoom’s “Preguntas y respuestas” (Q&A) function.

Agenda. The planned order of the day comprises two items:
- Update on the content of the draft Ministerial Order project and its annexes — a further iteration of the Proyecto de Orden Ministerial regulating the SPFE, which underwent public consultation earlier in 2026 and whose entry into force is a key trigger for the compliance countdown. [rtcsuite.com]
- Technical information on the SPFE’s services, with examples — building on the technical documentation AEAT has progressively released for software developers. [cleartax.com]
The material presented during the session will subsequently be published on the AEAT Desarrolladores webpage, and organisational queries about the seminar can be addressed to [email protected]. [vatupdate.com]
Industry reaction. The convocation drew swift attention from advisers. Marosa framed it on LinkedIn as post-holiday homework —“#CreayCrece: tenemos deberes para después de las vacaciones” — reminding practitioners that, while many are still on a well-earned break, AEAT has called the 10 September meeting to update information on the Crea y Crece e-invoicing project, in particular the draft Ministerial Order and the technical information on the public invoicing solution’s services. The scheduling of an update seminar underscores that the SPFE rules remain in draft and are still being adjusted, making the session a key checkpoint for ERP vendors, service providers and in-scope taxpayers to align their build against the latest specifications.
