Facturae is the electronic invoice format for the General State Administration that was set out in Order PRE/2971/2007 for the issuing of invoices by electronic means when their addressee is the General State Administration and for filing invoices issued between private individuals with the General State Administration. Filling with and addressing General State Administrator includes public organizations linked to or dependent on the administrator.
An electronic signature is needed to guarantee the authenticity and integrity of the e-invoice, providing more security than paper invoices. The file to be sent to the customer contains both the invoice information and an embedded signature.

All European public administrations must be able to accept invoices in electronic format from their suppliers, in compliance with the European standards approved by CEN: UN/CEFACT XML and UBL. Some countries have created their own national platforms to centralize the receipt of invoices from suppliers and others have opted to use the European PEPPOL network in preference for these B2G exchanges.
The invoices can be in one of these standards:
- PEPPOL BIS, based on the UBL standard
- CII, the UN/CEFACT XML
Invoices and credit notes based on these standards can be created according to country specifications of the destination country.
