Odoo electronic invoicing in Austria
|
|
====================================
|
|
|
|
Odoo Invoicing is your trusted partner for safe, efficient, and legally compliant e-invoicing
|
|
solutions tailored to Austria's regulatory standards, and compatible with the European `Peppol
|
|
<https://peppol.org/about/>`_ framework.
|
|
|
|
Legal framework for e-invoicing in Austria
|
|
==========================================
|
|
|
|
In Austria, businesses must adhere to e-invoicing laws that ensure secure, authentic, and storable
|
|
transactions. The main regulation governing e-invoicing requirements in Austria is the `Austrian VAT
|
|
Act (UStG) <https://www.ris.bka.gv.at/GeltendeFassung.wxe?Abfrage=Bundesnormen&Gesetzesnummer=10004873>`_
|
|
and its related e-invoicing standards for public procurement (`BGBI. I Nr. 32/2019 <https://360.lexisnexis.at/d/rechtsnorm-ris/32_bundesgesetz_mit_dem_das_beamten_dienstrechtsge/b_bgbl_2019_2019_I_32_46c550bf37>`_),
|
|
which aligns with `EU Directive 2014/55/EU <https://eur-lex.europa.eu/legal-content/EN/TXT/?uri=CELEX%3A32014L0055>`_.
|
|
These laws mandate that all businesses engaged in :abbr:`B2G (business-to-government)` transactions
|
|
must use e-invoicing, and increasingly, e-invoicing is encouraged for B2B transactions to improve
|
|
tax compliance and transparency.

|
Compliance with Austrian e-invoicing regulations
|
|
================================================

|
|
|
Odoo Invoicing makes it easy for businesses to send, store, and ensure the integrity of their
|
|
invoices. Here is how Odoo ensures compliance:
|
|
|
|
- **Supported format**: Odoo supports standard e-invoice formats such as PDF with digital signatures
|
|
and XML in :abbr:`UBL (Universal Business Language)` format, which are fully compatible with
|
|
e-rechnung.gv.at, Austria's central electronic invoicing platform for public procurement
|
|
transactions. Any platform can be used if connected to the authentication services of the Federal
|
|
Service Portal (:abbr:`USP (Unternehmensserviceportal)`) e-rechnung.gv.at for e-invoicing
|
|
transmission.
|
|
- **Secure storage and retrieval**: In accordance with the Austrian requirement to store invoices
|
|
for a minimum of seven years, Odoo securely archives all invoices in a tamper-proof system,
|
|
ensuring that they can be easily retrieved during audits.
|
|
- **Automatic VAT calculation and reporting**: Odoo Invoicing helps businesses stay in line with
|
|
Austrian VAT requirements by automatically calculating and including VAT in invoices and ensuring
|
|
that each invoice follows the legal format for B2B and :abbr:`B2G (business-to-government)`
|
|
transactions.
