Requirement for certified software

Many countries require businesses to use certified software to produce the legal invoice in a country. Portugal is a good example.

This means that Tungsten has had to adopt its ‘standard’ offering to customers. We do not create the legal invoice on behalf of suppliers in Portugal, but rather ask the suppliers to attach the legal invoice to our system.

Similarly, Spain has announced that as of 1^st January 2024, only state or VERI*FACTU approved invoicing software may be used to prepare and submit invoices.

Tungsten will need to assess the requirements the Spanish government has proposed for potential certified software providers from 1^st January 2024, when the changes are expected to take place. Tungsten Network is analysing these requirements and seeing how we can best support our Spanish market considering these new requirements.

Tungsten Network is aware of the growing traction of e-invoicing in Spain. We are closely monitoring e-invoicing developments in the country.
