How businesses in Spain invoice and get paid

Spanish invoices show the supplier's NIF (tax ID) and, uniquely, self-employed professionals invoicing Spanish businesses apply IRPF withholding — typically minus 15% (7% for new autónomos) deducted from the invoice total, which the client pays to the AEAT on the freelancer's behalf. Payment is by SEPA transfer or domiciled direct debit, with Bizum reserved for consumer-facing micro-payments; the anti-late-payment law caps B2B terms at 60 days. There is no minimum threshold for charging IVA, so even the smallest autónomo invoices with 21% IVA from the first euro. Invoices are in Spanish (or co-official languages) and euros, numbered in strict sequence per series.

Why Spain businesses choose Xuvilo

What's on every Spain invoice

How to create a Spain invoice in three steps

Step 1. Open the Spain invoice generator. Currency and tax are pre-loaded for you. Fill in your business details and logo; signed in, the company profile you save under Settings fills them in for you.

Step 2. Add your customer and your line items. Quantity, unit price and tax update the totals automatically. Switch language between Arabic & English as needed; Xuvilo flips the layout to RTL or LTR for you.

Step 3. Click "Download PDF". Your Spain invoice is generated as a print-ready A4 file in EUR, ready to email to the client or attach to your accounting system.

Tax in Spain

Spain applies 21% IVA on most invoiced goods and services, so Xuvilo defaults the tax rate to 21% IVA on the Spain invoice. You can override the rate per line, exclude exempt items, or add multiple tax components if your business requires it.

The tax authority responsible for Spain is Agencia Estatal de Administración Tributaria (AEAT / Agencia Tributaria). Spain traditionally has no VAT registration threshold — IVA applies from the first invoice — though an EU-derived small-business franchise regime has been under consideration; verify the current position with the AEAT.

E-invoicing rules in Spain

Spain mandates FacturaE e-invoices for suppliers to the public sector, and a universal B2B e-invoicing obligation was legislated in the Crea y Crece law, though it only takes effect one to two years after the implementing regulations are finalised — verify the current status with the AEAT, as the regulations have been long delayed. Meanwhile the separate VERI*FACTU rules require businesses to use certified, tamper-proof invoicing software from 2026 (companies first, self-employed later). Large companies already report VAT ledgers in near real time via the SII system.

Beyond invoices — quotations and receipts for Spain

Xuvilo isn't only an invoice generator. The same business profile powers a free quotation generator for sending price quotes before a deal is signed, a free receipt generator for confirming payments after they're made, and a 859 template library for industry-specific designs. Most Spain businesses go through quote → invoice → receipt for every project, and Xuvilo covers all three.

Frequently Asked Questions — Spain

What IVA rate goes on a Spanish invoice?

The general IVA rate is 21%, with a 10% reduced rate and a 4% super-reduced rate for essentials. Because Spain has no registration threshold, virtually every business and autónomo charges IVA from their first invoice, itemising base imponible, rate and cuota separately.

When will B2B e-invoicing become mandatory in Spain?

The Crea y Crece law makes B2B e-invoicing compulsory, but the clock starts only once the technical regulations are approved — large companies get about a year to comply and smaller ones two. Separately, VERI*FACTU certified-software rules bite from 2026, so most Spanish businesses will modernise invoicing regardless; confirm dates with the AEAT.

What is IRPF retención on Spanish freelance invoices?

Autónomos providing professional services to Spanish businesses must subtract IRPF withholding — generally 15%, or 7% during the first years of activity — on the invoice, which the client remits to the tax office as an advance on the freelancer's income tax. The invoice therefore shows base, plus 21% IVA, minus the retención, giving a net payable.

How do Spanish businesses invoice clients in other EU countries?

B2B services to VAT-registered clients elsewhere in the EU are invoiced without Spanish IVA under the reverse-charge rule, citing both parties' intra-community VAT numbers (validated in VIES) and noting "inversión del sujeto pasivo". These sales are reported on the Modelo 349 recapitulative return, and payment arrives by standard SEPA transfer in euros.
