Text excerpt: “PDF invoices = e-invoices?”
There is often the assumption that PDF invoices – whether created digitally or as scanned paper invoices – are automatically also e-invoices.
Unfortunately, this is not the case.
Although a PDF invoice is a digital version of a paper invoice, it lacks the structure required for automatic and efficient processing.
E-invoices, on the other hand, contain structured data that can be read and processed directly by computer systems.
This is the key criterion for e-invoices.
An e-invoice consists of standardized formats such as XML, which contain specific fields for all relevant invoice information.
This structure enables the data to be automatically read, checked and processed in your accounting system.
Nevertheless, there are also hybrid formats such as ZUGFeRD, which contains both PDF and XML data.
These formats combine the legibility of a PDF file with the advantages of the structured data of an e-invoice.
So although you see a legible PDF on the screen with the ZUGFeRD format, it is actually an e-invoice, as it also contains XML data that can be read by a machine.
