How to issue an e-invoice?

  • E-invoice is a structured invoice in XML format
  • It can be generated and sent to KSeF using a free MF web application or a commercial invoice issuing program
  • The MF web application is not efficient for handling multiple purchase and sales invoices
  • Commercial programs allow for preparing invoices in XML format, sending sales invoices to KSeF, and downloading purchase invoices from KSeF
  • Access to the MF web application can be for production, demo, or testing purposes
  • Authentication is required to access the MF web application, either using trusted profiles, qualified electronic signatures, or qualified electronic seals
  • Companies other than individuals do not necessarily need a qualified electronic seal to use KSeF, but they must designate an authorized person to use KSeF
  • Commercial programs also require authentication, which can be done using electronic signatures/seals, trusted profiles, or generated tokens
  • Buyers can access e-invoices through the MF web application or their own financial and accounting program, after authentication
  • If the buyer is not a VAT active entity, the seller must provide a visual representation of the e-invoice outside of KSeF, such as in paper or PDF format.
