After the passing the Law of Business Creation and Growth, better known as “Create and Grow” (“Crea y Crece”), the use of the Electronic Invoice has become mandatory for commercial relations between companies and freelancers. This measures intends to create a better traceability and control among transactions with the objective of tackling non-payments and reducing payment periods.
Last September, Law 18/2022 on Creation and Growth was published in the Official State Bulletin (BOE), which, as a key measure, imposes the use of the Electronic Invoice in the commercial relations of companies and freelancers. This point of the Law has generated great expectation, because it will mean that all companies will have to use a software that responds to this new legal requirement.

And to do this, they have been inspired by PEPPOL, the standard developed in Europe.
