If you are a freelancer or run a small or medium-sized business in Spain and have heard about RD 1007/2023, the VeriFactu Regulation or the "Anti-Fraud Law" without quite understanding what it means for you, this article is for you. We are going to explain — without unnecessary technicalities — what Royal Decree 1007/2023 requires, who it applies to, from when, and above all, what concrete steps you can take today to reach 2027 without surprises.

With the RRSIF (Regulation on Requirements for Invoicing Information Systems) coming into force in 2027, every invoicing program used in Spain must meet a list of technical requirements that go far beyond what most freelancers and SMEs are used to. It is no longer enough for an invoice to have the issuer's details, the concept and the amount: the system that generates it must now guarantee the integrity, traceability and immutability of every record, and the invoice itself must include new elements such as the tax QR code. This article collects all requirements in a checklist format so you can verify whether your current software complies — or know exactly what to ask your provider.

Europe is experiencing the largest transformation of business invoicing in decades. What five years ago seemed like a distant trend — the obligation to issue structured electronic invoices between businesses — is already a reality in several countries and will be mandatory across the EU for intra-Community transactions by 2030. Each country is moving at its own pace with different technical models, but the direction is the same: machine-readable invoices, real-time data for tax authorities and the end of paper and PDF as valid invoice formats.

With the obligation to adapt invoicing systems to RD 1007/2023 just around the corner (1 January 2027 for corporations, 1 July 2027 for freelancers), choosing the right software is no longer just a question of price or features: it is a decision that will shape how you interact with the Spanish Tax Agency for years to come. And one of the key questions is: does the program I am evaluating support only VeriFactu, only No-VeriFactu, or both modes?

If you are a freelancer, SME or the person responsible for invoicing at a company operating in Spain, you have almost certainly heard of VeriFactu. But did you know there are two modes — VeriFactu and No-VeriFactu — and that the choice between them has direct implications for how you manage your invoices, how much technical responsibility you take on, and how you interact with the Spanish Tax Agency (AEAT)? This article covers everything you need to know to make the right decision.
