What this means for you

Since 1 January 2014, suppliers of goods and services to the Austrian federal government must submit structured e-invoices; foreign suppliers are subject to technical feasibility. The 2019/2020 public-sector acceptance dates do not create a general supplier duty to other public bodies. There is no general B2B or B2C mandate.

What FreeBillGen can verify

For eligible saved invoices, FreeBillGen can prepare generic OASIS UBL and UN/CEFACT CII mappings and run its named internal checks. These mappings are not EN 16931, Factur-X, Peppol, national-CIUS or clearance-platform validation. FreeBillGen does not transmit them through a provider network.
