📌 What is VERIFACTU and why is it so relevant?
VERIFACTU is the new system for secure registration and sending of invoices developed by the Tax Agency to:
- Ensure authenticity and traceability
- Control the integrity of invoicing
- Combat fraud
- Promote the digitalization of accounting processes
Its implementation affects all companies and self-employed individuals, and its integration with software such as Odoowill be mandatory.
🔍 Reasons for the postponement
The change responds to:
- Requests from associations of freelancers and SMEs (ATA, UPTA, ATAEM, etc.)
- Lack of real time for companies and software to adapt
- Need to clarify technical and operational doubts about the regulation
- Request for a more progressive and coherent transition
